What date will Iran’s remaining WC qualifiers be played ?
I'm going to add to this thread and ask if anyone has heard of potential friendlies for the November international dates?
I recall Tajikistan was floated as a potential friendly for October, perhaps it can be rescheduled for November? Would be good to get another Asian or European team in for a second game.
We need all the camps and friendlies we can get before the end of year for the team to gel together and pick up Skocic's system!
Its really hard to get decent friendlies with European and South American teams as almost all of them will be involved in actual meaningful games.
As for qualifiers, I am not really sure, the way things are going, maybe they'll resume in March? and that's a big maybe.
Also, I'd take any friendlies for November -- Asian, African are the easiest. Two our of three from the combination of Tajik, China and Lebanon might be workable. Syria, N. Korea, Palestine, or Kuwait too? Lets go! We badly need the game time.
I know but when the dates do come, that's when it'll be
My friend until FIFA and AFC announce them, the status is going to stay as "Postponed". Let's hope they find a way to schedule them. On a relevant note, all post-COVID ACL matches were and will be held in Doha, Qatar in a tournament fashion. We should be grateful that Qatar has been able to pull this off in a safe fashion. WC qualifiers are tricky since home court has meant something and until FIFA and AFC change the rules like it was done with ACL, the teams have to depend on the infrastructure of the host country. Short answer is that no one knows when and where the AFC WC qualifiers will be held.
