Bye Bye Iraq it seem's...

[Arashi_Washi]

Australians, since they're not used to grassrolling, get very frustrated and angry when arabs grassroll and they lose their concentration.
I'm also thinking they will lose the match.

All i know is that this group is going down to the wire...Everything will look much clearer next week when Australia play Qatar and Iraq plays China

[KC McElroy]

Everything will be clearer one all 4 teams finish all their matches.

[South Iraq]

I think Australia and Qatar will progress from this group. Iraq made a late wake up and I don’t think they can do it, unless the they play with the never say die Iraqi mentality in the next two games.

Its really the group of death, and I wont be surprised to see whoever qualifies to the next round will actually make it to the world cup.

[Arashi_Washi]

Sorry my friend...

Qatar, China and Certainly Iraq wont make the World Cup...Even with a late push in this group we will see how Australia goes but their chance of making the world cup is of course clear

But i dont belive neither one of China, Qatar and Iraq will be in S.Africa..

Iraq has a good chance of making it to the World Cup if They get passed this stage which they didn't start so brightly.

With Asia's powerhouses falling asleep, teams like Uzbekistan, Qatar and even Bahrain will have a good call in the second round. Qatar (the most likely team to go through to the next round with Australia) are a strong team, with smart coach, very organised, and have a lot of good individuals. As for Iraq, if the team manages to qualify to the second round and put incharge a decent foreign coach they will be very strong as well.

Theres a big turn in Asia and the dominating powers dont have it all that smooth anymore.

[Sumerian]

I personally think Qatar will give Australia a hard time in Doha...

Last match Qatar didnt have Soria and i belive this guy will give Australia their fair share of headache's

I think this group is still far from decided....Australia are not safe at all....

Dude, what are you talking about, Soria scored the only goal of the game last match!



Soria is nothing special, he can be neutralized by a decent organized defense.

[djmo]

Emad has broken the jinx with the best goal of the qualifiers.

Last time he scored against Australia:

Best goal of the tournament? He wasn't even trying to score, he was trying to send it in ... Emad can't even score outside 4-5 feet much less outside the box lol; and Australia's GK is stupid for not setting himself up better. And Zandi's goal is the best goal of the qualifers, a real work of art!

[shayan20]

Well, I dont know if you have seen their games, but I assure you, as of right now, they have a TEAM that is playing a lot better than our "team".

I second that.
Specially Iraq, they are one hell of a team, maybe because the players have been with each other for years but our players just got together.

[yashar_fasihnia]

iraq was really unlucky to lose to australia on australias turf. i saw the highlights, they missed so many chances and even hit the post. australia scored from one of the few 3 4 chances they had. ofcourse, end of the game, the team who makes better use of their chances is the winner but if iraq played the same way they played against australia in both games, i think they deserve and indeed will qualify to the next round and maybe even to the worldcup even if it is throught he play offs. they have a good team, atleast better than qatar and china.

[Arashi_Washi]

My prediction is that Qatar will pull of a upset...I dont kno what kind of a upset...

Whether it may be a loss or a draw....It will be a upset in Doha...

[shayan20]

^^why upset?
Qatar is a good team and at home They are much stronger.
I think they'll beat the Aussies and then the Aussies come up with excuses such as the heat of Doha and they say they didn't provide them with enough training balls.

Exactly what i mean....They will come up with exuses...Dont even have a doubt about that.....I am sure they will come up with a good exuse if they loose points....


Welcome to Asia is all i have to say to Australia....
They thought after the win against Iraq at home they were cruising and through

Now its the other way around and they will have to work even harder to get a result in Doha and leaving it all until the last day at home against China

[Prince of Persia]

Iraq just beat China, they still have a chance.

[Zamboor]

I HOPE THEY MAKE IT to the next group

my dream is to see iran crush them and take away there wc spot muhahaha
