Do you think Australia is Asian?

unfortunately they have been added though. In reality the better these five nations do the better the hopes of tm will be in qualifying in 2010.

I hope atleast 2 out of 5 make it to the second round (iran one of them).
FIFA in this case might give us 5 permenant places for 2006.

I prefer about 6 permanent places for Asia in the 2010 edition, but even if some of us may be angry about Australia now a member of the AFC (and thus officially "Asian") but if it helps raise the level of football in Asia, all the better.

Australia is absolutely Asian

[Suprah]

Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, Israel and Daegestan arnt really European, but they play in Europe.

Woah...when did Daegestan join UEFA and have a national team of its own ??

[Amir H F]

Nope.

Whatever they are, wouldn't it be irnoic if NewZeland qualified in the next
WC 2010, but Australia got eliminated by Iran?
