I read the qualification rules now. CONCACAF method is not fair. Only the top 6 teams have chance to qualify plus 1 playoff winner.

 

Eactly from 6 teams 3 will qualify directly leaving just 0,25 of a seat for the winner of preliminary rounds :thumbdown: it's a lack of respect here

What will happen if Qatar wins their group? Their spot in third round goes to 5th best runner-up from all groups? or runner-up from their group qualify directly as winner of group? or Qatar plays even the third round? 

 

They will only play until this 2nd round, so group E will see Oman qualify to next round while there could be another potential runner up to qualify from there though it will be hard :d depending on the other group runners up which would collect more points than India or Afghanistan

Syria really got screwed over here. They have to travel to three Far East countries and the remote Maldives.

Also, Saudi vs Yemen? Really?

 

Syria did that last time playing 22 games until the playoff vs Australia ;)

and beside that Iran has serious problems in "paying foreign coaches" because of the sanctions transferring money in and out of Iran is simply impossible. another reason for other coaches to turn down the job.

 

Are there no good Iranian coaches? :mumble: why not having a  native coach same goes for most arab countries :d

nobody in Iran really understood how serious the situation is. everybody thought losing to Bahrain was just "an accident" and Iraq will be walk in the park. now even winning the next 4 matches won't guarantee anything. and with this team and this coach, even in packed Azadi they can't beat both Bahrain in Iraq.

 

 

Why so pessimistic? i'm sure Iran will qualify for next round you still have one match less than Bahrain :whistle: and you have 3 home games and just one away in Cambodia:d

Done, the top of each group will qualify to the next round 

 

My Predictions : 

 

Group A : :ALG 

Group B : :TUN 

Group C : :NGR 

Group D : hard to tell :CMR or :CIV :wall:

Group E : :MLI though :UGA is good too

Group F : :EGY 

Group G : :GHA or may be :RSA :p

Group H : :SEN 

Group I : :MAR 

Group J : :COD or surprising :MAD :mumble:

 

But serious things are in Round 3 where qualified teams will be seeded for the Playoff ties :mumble: in that case there will be at least 3 tough games for sure...

just imagine this (following the current FIFA world rankings seeding) :

 

IN POT 1 : :SEN -  :TUN -  :NGR -  :ALG -  :MAR 

 

IN POT 2 : :GHA or :RSA - :EGY - :CMR OR :CIV :MLI -  :COD  

 

 

 :p

As long as it will be only 5 teams Veneuela wouldn't stand a chance even if they are better than Paraguay and Ecuador there are Argentina Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay :dunno:

 

 

Chile doesn't have any decent players under the age of 30. Venezuela the opposite, they have good young players. 

 

I don't think Chile is a lock to qualify in this long format.

    • Every* Olympic medal swimmer from  is missing this          *Yes, it’s only 2 (Daniel Wiffen & Mona McSharry) but we’ve never had more than one before so I needed to use the word “every”
    • The full schedule in shorttrack always appears very late, like the day/evening before the first day. So tomorrow evening, you should see it here: https://www.shorttrack.swisstiming.com/?evt=11213100000127
    • I think you're doom spiraling too hard after just a few races...   Giacomel is very strong and I think that he might definitely land on a podium this season. The Italian women's team has a lot of very talented juniors that just need some time to grow. Dorothea Wierer also took her time to grow into her best form, so why is it not possible to give some time to the other talented athletes? Not everyone is bound to crush it at 21-23 y. o. 
    • Of course they could make lineal world records, but they don't want that, because those records would never be beaten. And it's way more marketable, flashy etc. when you have "modern" WR and they happen regularly. Athletics have started mastering this in their course of upgrading the old WRs with "exciting new stars".   There is absolutely no reason, when your current weight is up to 89 kg for example, and the previous WR has been set in the old weight at 85-86-87 etc. that it's not automatically taken. It has been set under the current limit, there is no difference if the person weighted 85 or 88.5 kg it's within the range.. Now if the old category was over 89, then there would be an advantage, so those WR shouldn't be taken.    The best way is, like you mentioned, to use the bodyweight of everyone, but that is an impossible ask for any weightlifting governing body. I'm not even sure how they are able to run a normal excel..
    • Since it has been so long, here's a comparison of events relative to 2018.   Aquatics Diving Removed: All events; 3m springboard (M/F), 10m platform (M/F), Team (Mix) Swimming Removed: 800m freestyle (M/F), 4x100m freestyle relay (M/F/Mix), and 4x100m medley relay (M/F/Mix)   Badminton Removed: Team (Mix)   Baseball/Softball Add: Baseball5 (Mix)   Basketball Removed: Dunk contest (M), Shoot-out contest (F)   Boxing Add: 1 women's category Removed: 4 men's categories   Canoeing Slalom Removed: All events; Obstacle C1 (M/F), Obstacle K1 (M/F) Sprint Removed: All events; Head-to-head C1 (M/F), Head-to-head K1 (M/F)   Cycling Add: Road race (M/F), Time trial (M/F) Removed: Combined team (M/F), BMX Race (Mix), BMX Freestyle (Mix)   Dancesport (Breaking) Removed: Team (Mix)   Equestrian Removed: Team (Mix)   Fencing Removed: Team (Mix)   Field Hockey Removed: All events; Hockey5s (M/F)   Golf Removed: All events; Individual (M/F), Team (Mix)   Gymnastics Add: Team Artistic All-Around (Mix) Acrobatics Removed: All events; Pairs (Mix) Artistic Removed: Floor (M/F), Vault (M/F), Rings (M), Pommel horse (M), Horizontal bar (M), Parallel bar (M), Uneven bars (F), Balance beam (F) Rhythmic Removed: All events; Individual all-around (F) Trampoline Removed: All events; Individual (M/F) Combined Removed: All events; Team (Mix)   Judo Removed: Team (Mix)   Karate Removed: All events; M (-61kg, -68kg, +68kg), F (-53kg, -59kg, +59kg)   Modern pentathlon Removed: All events; Individual (M/F), Team (Mix)   Roller sports Skateboarding Add: Street (M/F) Speed skating Removed: All events; Combined (M/F)   Rowing Add: Costal single sculls (M/F), Costal double sculls (Mix) Removed: Single sculls (M/F), Coxless pairs (M/F)   Sailing Removed: Kiteboarding (M/F), Multihull Class (Mix)   Shooting Removed: All events; Air Rifle (M/F/Mix Team), Air Pistol (M/F/Mix Team)   Sport climbing Removed: All events; Combined (M/F)   Taekwondo Add: Team (Mix)   Tennis Removed: All events; Singles (M/F), Doubles (M/F/Mix)   Triathlon Removed: Relay (Mix)   Weightlifting Removed: All events; M (-56kg, -62kg, -69kg, -77kg, 85kg, +85kg), W (-44kg, -48kg, -53kg, -58kg, -63kg, +63kg)   Wrestling Beach Wrestling Add: M (-50kg, -60kg, -70kg, -80kg), W (-40kg, -50kg, -60kg, -70kg) Freestyle Remove: M (-48kg, -55kg, -65kg, -80kg, -110kg), W (-43kg, -49kg, -57kg, -65kg, -73kg) Greco-Roman Removed: M (-45kg, -51kg, -60kg, -71kg, -92kg)   Wushu Add: Changquan Combined (M/F), Taijiquan Combined (M/F)     In total we have dropped from 239 to 151 events. Olympic sports Canoeing, Field Hockey, Golf, Modern Pentathlon, Shooting, Sport Climbing, Tennis, and Weightlifting will not be involved in any matter while the non-Olympic sport of Karate was also dropped. Baseball/Softball, Dancesport, and Wushu are non-Olympic sports which will get to participate in some capacity.   22/31 Olympic sports will be present (surfing has yet to be involved at a Youth Olympics).   I know we can't (or should) emulate the Olympic program, but hosts should try to include as many sports as possible, especially the relatively cheaper ones like shooting, sport climbing and weightlifting. The good thing is that it looks like the mixed NOCs events are gone (I think they mentioned this earlier).
    • schedule of events is always the same, you can look at the previous round and see how normally things go   no finals on Friday (qualifications of all events only), medal sessions are always only on Saturday and Sunday (alternating men and women's distances on the 2 days, mixed relay normally ends on Sunday)
    • There are both positives and negatives in this situation. The negative is that we are once again changing the weights and erasing records in an attempt to forget the past and "start all over". Nothing speaks more about the integrity of a sport, when it changes it's system every 5 years.   On the positive is that they are actually reducing the number of weights and not keeping the absurd 10. And i know, that for a long time in the past they were always 10, but i think 8 is the perfect balance.   If only wrestling could reduce them to 8 as well.. Boxing could have 10, but that would still be a plus from their current 13-15, or whatever number they have.
    • I think this time  won't get many 4th places, rather they have some chances to win it all (in Freestyle)
    • some Olympic stars are missing...   no Ceccon nor Martinenghi for  and, above all, no  Marchand
