2:1 FT.

Great way to end the preparation with a good win against a team which is much better than many people think.

I think everyone should feel confident going into the tournament.

Iran y u no score more goals?

[Martin-Reza]

Good win, as said Qatar are quite in form. Perfect that two strikers scored. Hope no-one got a knock. Might well be that we will see the same lineup in our opener in exactly one week.

[Abtin]

Defeating Qatar on their turf is def. a moral boost.

[sarbaz]

So JB did not get any playing time at all ??!!!

I just dont see how he would be ready and fit, in form to play any time soon ???

Maybe by the Iraq match ???

In my eyes PAG is first choice for the center back position, I love for Kanan the Barberian to make the second beast but I think CQ will go for Hosseini!?

Interesting Vietnam putting 4 past Philippines- one thing is guaranteed although we don’t score many goals, opponents would find it so tough to score against us.
