Our World Cup hopes will be alive for another 8 days first ever away win against Bahrain, even though technically that was a "home match"

 

2 wins out 4, and I assume beating Cambodia will be easy. so it's win or die match against Iraq now. if it wasn't for North Korea's withdrawal Iran would qualify even after losing to Iraq but now only a win will be enough.

Iran can qualify with a draw vs Iraq if 3 of these 5 results happen:

 

- Australia beats Jordan (but Jordan should need to also beat Kuwait first to have a chance)

- Japan beats or draws Kyrgyzstan

- Saudi Arabia beats Uzbekistan 

- Uae loses to Vietnam

-Lebanon loses to both Turkmenistan and South Korea

 

I think only China and Oman are "safe" seconds for now since they will play very weak but "non-bottom" opponents.

yes I know about all those scenarios but some of them are unlikely. most of these matches will happen after Iran-Iraq

 

Japan will beat KGZ. I'm not worried about that group.

either Jordan or Kuwait will finish 2nd in that group. if Jordan beat Kuwait, will Australia play with maximum capacity to beat Jordan and help Iran advance ?

will KSA try to beat Uzbekistan to help Iran ? (I highly doubt about this one)

Lebanon losing to (already eliminated) TKM is a bit unlikely.

and from what I saw UAE will be favorite against Vietnam. even a draw will be enough for them most probably.

 

considering everything I think Iran's chance is something around 30% at best to qualify in case of drawing Iraq. of course Iraq has to beat HKG first.

61%-39% 1st half Ball possesion - but still zero zero... our coach would be proud of PER bus parking

Colombia tied the game in the last minute, very disappointing night for Argentinians

Argentina will qualiify but nothing more than that.

I can't believe how we didn't win this game.

 

Otamendi and Foyth have negative IQ.

  lost to   2:3 in last 5 minutes.  So the situation all changed in a sudden. It seems China will most probably advance to top12 now.
