Big question is will we see Ghoddos?

I doubt it, since no Iranian sources has leaked any information on his inclusion yet.

[BacheLot]

Where is the training for his match taking place .!?
Outside Iran .!? I gather no friendly prior to the match has been finalized yet !?

South Koreans on Bigsoccer not happy about squad.

Lee dong Gook is 38 yrs old and not as fast as a lot of the strikers we faced this round. KsW is that big fella Sadeghi guarded in 2014. They need to score on us.

They also called up a couple oldies in the midfiels they are not happy with. They did call up Ki Seung Yung from Swansea City but he is projected injured until mid september.

We might not have Shojaei/Hajsafi but this game is going to be huge for Korea.

In the neutrals mind a tie would be best along with an Uzbekistan win vs China.

Just imagine Korea vs Uzbekistan in Tashkent with Korea needing to win!

Welcome to the grind. Look on the bright side, at least you aren't in the US, they really put you through the meet grinder as an adult.
