One of Ecuador’s friendlies must have been canceled as they have games on the 2nd, 5th and 11th.

Offer of Iran and ranking is much better for Ecu
Among them all Iran is the prize

"we [Ecuadorians] have nothing against Iran. Iran has done nothing to us."
"we are] not going to stop getting closer to Iran because (the United States) has it on a black list."

Crazy thing is if people actually knew Hamid Estili, they would know he's the furthest thing from an IR guy. I have a friend who is very close with Hamid Estili and constantly talks to him. He is an Iran-parast.

He will try his best for us.

He comes off a khaymal , and has been reported to be friends with high level iri intell agents-pictured with a few of them [emoji2371]

Hmm 2 friendlies with WC-teams, not bad. Now if they could arrange a friendly in Iran( beginning of camp) or 14th june( end of camp) then we’ll have 3 friendlies. Just like the other WC-teams.

If we go by pictures, no one is free from scorn. A lot of people that know these people can attest that they all hate and are disgusted by IR - because unlike you and I, they work in IRI's system and know how frustrating, corrupt and immoral it is.

Even the IFF, while we complain about their incompetency, are different than IR (i.e. they want women in stadiums, they want more transparent money to flow in our football etc.)

Put yourself in their shoes. They have to work with what's there.

Fair enough …it’s hard not to judge from the outside looking in. I know for a fact one recent former tm player was a friend to the Pahlavi’s and when in the states would visit them and be invited to their parties in the east coast .

We also played them in 2000 in the US and won 2-1. Interestingly the 1999 game was also in Canada (edmonton).

I think game was with their U23 not senior team.

LOS ANGELES -- Cheered by a large, loud contingent of fans, many wearing green, white and red face paint and waving Iranian flags, Iran's national soccer team continued its historic U.S. tour with a 2-1 victory Wednesday night over Ecuador's under-23 squad.

Good analysis, you're right on the money.

It's hard for well-meaning people to operate in a rotten system, but they have no choice

Any hints as to where the Ecuador match will be held (what city)

Any hints as to where the Ecuador match will be held (what city)

Canada women announced a friendly against South Korea today to be played in Toronto's BMO Field, but their game is on June 26 so Toronto is still a possibility

Toronto probably, but I could also see them selecting a smaller city to minimize the political aspect.

The thing is that the mohajeds (which majority of the people against the match are) are willing to travel to smaller cities to protest, but the average fan isn't going to go to Moncton to watch a match, so if anything, the protests will seem bigger than they actually are in a smaller city.

Honestly not sure where the best place would be.
