Sardar was lost due to no game plan. He was just there! No fault of his own.

[Medzdidz]

We will be laughing this off when we are holding up the World Cup in Qatar in three years time.

Ufff disappointing indeed. However better to have this loss now to get our heads out of the clouds and realize 14 goals against Cambodia matter little going forward.

Still any loss to a Persian Gulf rival and especially Bahrain is painful. Can't say I am not upset. Team was super undisciplined and disorganized!

If it's any consolation the KSA, S. Korea, and UAE teams all had off nights as well!

1 - Omid and hajsafi are a pretty shit combo in midfield.
2 - I love omid to death, first game i actually saw him being shit tbh.
3 - we missed ASHKAN ALOT.
4 - Hosseini is amazing for his club, but he is half asleep for his country
5 - who the fuck plays taremi, ansarifard, sardar all together.
6 - dont bash wilmots yet, even though i didnt want him to be TM coach, its still early to bash him
7 - where the fuck is VAR? HAND BALL INCIDENT.

I know CQ’s time with Iran was finished and it was time for him to go for a multitude of reasons...

But as some were almost hysterically asking for his tenure to end, there were others who warned about how we had it so good for so long that we were almost taking TM quality under CQ for granted. There were some that warned we might quickly regress back to the days of loosing to the likes of Bahrain and having to sweat our way through qualifications again.
I just hope today was a fluke and Wilmots has a plan for this.

I’m very worried about our next crucial game in Basra against Iraq. We haven’t played there before at all and it will be in a very hostile environment. We should be happy with a tie next month in Basra considering todays performance!

We need more posts like this in this thread. Lets stay positive. Its not the end of the tournament.
Also, it definitely is comforting knowing that KSA, S. Korea, and UAE teams all had off nights as well! Thanks for that fact!

I think they turn the VAR off for Arab Football Confederation games

I’m saying this for a while now that hajsafi and ebrahimi together is shit

Hopefully wilmot will understand now why CQ always invite Ezzatolahi and JB and play with4-2-3-1
Our midfield looked really bad today hajsafi should never play there.

P.S gholizadeh would have been good for this match

Going forward Gholizadeh will be a great impact player to bring on when the opposition is tiring and he can use his skill to open defences up.

[Bladsville]

Gholizadeh would have been SICK for this match. He would have had the ability to get through that Bahrani wall with his ball control.

[Medzdidz]

I’ve got to admit that when I saw team sheet I was worried about our attacking options off the bench but I think for the next round of games this will only get better.

[sarbaz]

Iran did not play well and that was a dumb penalty given by Hosseini
But I promise you all
TM will end up first in this group , you will se
Next year , 3 out of our return matches will be in Azadi
Bad loss for sure but not the end of the world
The coaching staff and the players are still gaining new experiences

[H.Behzadi FAN]

we BEAT Morrocco ? they beat themselves bro

[H.Behzadi FAN]

We are missing key creative players
AJB, Jahanbaksh, Ezatolahi , Ghoddos ,
Our right and left backs need to either get better or replaced by someone better
Any away game in Bahrain for Iran is a tough one .... since the 11th century ... so ...
The weather looked like it was a factor
We will be fine guys ... Believe in these players. We already know how good they can be
