Iran - Phillipines 8 PM Los angeles time



so if we win this game, we're guaranteed next round correct??

We already qualified ! but if we win Phils and Korea we will win the group and will play against Qatar in the dangerous quarterfinals.

why does samad like to use NIKKHAH as his last name? Isn't his official last name BAHRAMI? Thats much easier to pronounce

Nah mate, its a Persian name, so the middle one is the correct last name. Example, Shojaei's name is: Masoud Shojaei Soleimani but no one calls him by the very last name.

Same thing with Samad Nikkhah Bahrami.

thanks dadash

half time Iran is dominating, winning by 20+ so far

our team is a bit sloppy, i hope they get better by next year for the world cup cuz otherwise we'll be losing by huge margins....god forbid we get US i would love to see our team against US but also i dont want us to get killed either...im sure players like samad would get a good chance to impress NBA scouts however

Haltime Iran 51-34 Phillipines Hadaddi 17 points 8 rebounds, 3 blocks, Nikkhah Bahrami 11 points
