overall i feel that it was a even match throughout.
WOW Bahrain should of scored at least 2 goals. 2 clear chances that i can recall didn't go in the back of the net. i sometimes wonder how on earth are they the 5th best team in Asia?
i actually feel that bahrain are weaker than i first thought, i still wonder how iran was not at minimum not the 5th best this WCQ


i think that NZ are the happier team going into the wnd leg

[shafeii]

Bahrain (Salman isa)misses open GOAL!

YES that's the open chance that i dont know how he missed..

[The Joker]

New Zealand will take this one! Great away result. 0-0 isn't that bad.

[Kaveh Ahangar]

Yes, NZ will be pleased to have not conceded despite Bahrain's myriad chances although NZ had a goal ruled out for offside, and had a few good chances themselves...they will be disappointed not to have snatched a valuable away goal.

...and I certainly agree with shafeii, Bahrain are GARBAGE. It's such a shame that Iran was eliminated so early and this team of amateur Africans has a shot at getting to the WC.

Truly devastating, although there are strong mitigating factors that ruined Iran's football.

if bahrain doesnt go to WC, salman isa will have to live the rest of his life knowing he missed that wide open chance to send his team to the world cup.

^It seems we will not see either Turkey in WC.

Salman Isa is a selfish idiot. He could easily have squared the ball across goal to his team-mate (who was behind him anyway, so would have been onside) to tap into the empty net...

..but instead he chose to shoot from a narrow angle and hit the post. LOL. Oh, how I laughed at those Bahrainis.

Bosnia to play-off and Turkey out. It's a big shame that we won't see Turkey in WC, but who could blame. Bosnia deserved it! Well done to them.

yeah, we tied f'n estonia and that cost us. and blowing a 1-1 tie against spain in the 90th minute at home. bosnia is a very good side technically, but i dont think they will get past the group stage.

but now, i have no team at the world cup lol looks like ill be rooting for england.
