Spain, Portugal and Morocco's World Cup Preparation matches

[Sam van Dam]

Fact is, Saudis have a much better rapport internationally with countries (diplomacy) than IR.

And Iranians have to suffer while Saudis can schedule the best preparation friendlies, camps etc. possible.

Our football is a consequence of our shitty political system, but let's blame everyone else.

why do you think nobody wants to play us lol. not blaming anyone, we all know who is giving our country a bad rep over the past few decades, but the fact the saudi wear nike and we can't is more than a coincidence.

saudi is looking better than us, ill admit that, but we'll see how thing play out next week. our group is much tougher than theirs, but our players have more pride and money can't buy that

Saudis always wear Nike - they have tons of Nike stores and office in Saudi Arabia. They have laws to protect copyright and they have great diplomacy with the rest of the world. Iran is a pariah state that has leaders that only know how to steal and pillage. Our foreign minister chants "Marg Bar Amrika." You think Nike gives a sh*t about Iran?

Respect to Saudi Arabia's game today. This is friendly but they can take a lot of positives out of this game.

Really risky for their federation to play this game so close to the World Cup (and possibly getting trashed by the world's best team), but it seems its a risk that may work out in their favour.

Morocco plays Estonia on Saturday

Spain plays Tunisia on Saturday

So If Russia could manage and get 3 - 3 draw against spain ( two penalties for spain ). We can do it too.
We just have to wait and see .

Apparently Cheshmi will start as a CDF since CQ believes he is the best modern central defense that iran has ever seen.

We are going to WIN Morocco on Friday!

I am suprised Germany my country played 2:1 only against Saudi Arabia I was hoping 8:0 or more for my country

Beautiful goal by morocco. They really do play great football and I have to commend them on that.

[Omid177]

I just want to know how Shojaei will deal with Morocco's pressure. When their opponents have the ball they attack like wild animals.

Every time I watch them I try to come up with an excuse but god damn they are good. They can hold the ball so damn well.

[Tehranto]

I just hope a couple of our players go to Europe from this World Cup, that's the most I can hope for.

I really have zero hope - and I am usually not like this. There is no question that all three of the teams in our group are much better than us.

The one area of hope I had was that we have CQ and he's a better coach than most. Unfortunately, Renard is better than CQ - so we lose on that front too.

If an Iranian coach said that Cheshmi is the best modern defender we have had in the last 10 years, we would crucify him.

Trying to keep faith, but everytime I watch them play I really lose hope.

Morocco are considered by many to be dark horses for this tournament and capable of an upset. They are certainly much higher rated by the media I have listend/watched than Iran who report them as an absolute unit.

So although I have faith in CQ, my expectations are low about what we can achieve.

[Taz]

Renard's CV looks embarrasing compared to CQ. And that's also why you give more value to CQ's ratings of players than Iranian coaches.

[Tehranto]

This Morocco team is excellent. They play so smoothly and can sit behind the ball, playing the right diagonal passes and passes that open up space.

Ziyech is going to be a big problem for us. What a great player. I now understand why many said he is better than Alireza Jahanbakhsh.

2-0 Morocco.
