How many points will we gain in our group?

Unbelievable match against Mexico, tie Portugal, and narrow victory over Angola.

[BehzadB]

I have asked 10 friends here in Iran. the answer was surprising.

ZERO points. They all said ZERO. (it was surprising because most of them don't know each other). They all said, We will loose all three games. But play hard. So someone click the zero option 10 times for those friends I asked here in Iran.

I can not make a guess yet. I don't even know who the hell Angola is. I have not seen Protugal. I think we can beat Mexico. But am worried about Angola. I am always afraid of those African players. I sometimes think how Kaabi will be like a "choob kebreet" next to those players and he is supposed to stop them on the right side? I just don't see it happening. God help us and make Kaabi bigger

Im in a optimistic mood. I voted for 5 points.
I hope we manage to get 2 points from our first 2 games and win our last one.
its not impossible, we just need to believe in ourselves

[Behrooz]

1 point or a max of 2 points.

[Asghar Agha]

if we are lucky, three points...

[ARYA]

Iran 2-1 Mexico
Iran 1-2 Portugal
Iran 2-0 Angola

6 points

Mexico 1-2 Iran
Mexico 2-1 Angola
Mexico 2-1 Portugal

6 points

Portugal 3-0 Angola
Portugal 2-1 Iran
Portugal 1-2 Mexico

6 points

It'll come down to goal difference with Portugal winning as the group leaders, and TM will edge out Mexico for the second spot.

I am the one who voted for 0.

Psychologically speaking, If we get 0 points, it wont surprise me and I am ready for it. Lets face it, we will lose againts Portugal and Mexico on an average day and Angola is a team more or less similar to our top Asian opponants like Korea/Japan/Saudi so a loss is possible.

My own prediction is just a draw againts Angola and 2 respectable losses.

Being optimistic, I predict 5 points.Win againts Angola and 2 draws is the most we can hope for.

we will either play really good or it will be a disaster. either 4 points or 1 point.

[zeerak]

we will either play really good or it will be a disaster. either 4 points or 1 point.

It is very possible for TM to get 4 to 5 points. They have to be on their best form and no kicking about attitude!
Otherwise I would not count on even beating Angola.

The stat looks encouraging! Let's hope it all work out!

Mirzapour is vital in the sucess of our World Cup campaign and his performances will be key in wether we get past the first round

I hope Mirza pulls a rustu!

[Dr.shark]

we will get one point and that will be against Angola.
I say this because we are not playing any big teams to get us ready for such big names as Purtugal, Mexico. We also have not fixed the problems that we have been having in net and in deffence.
We also seem to get weaker per game.
and we still have Branko and we know he is not about attacking he is all about deffending. With such a deffending coach it will be hard to go 90+ min of attacking football against such attacking teams as Portugal and Mexico.
Mexico (2)- Iran (0)
Portugal (2)- Iran (0)
Angola (1)- Iran (1)

Iranians need to bin the inferiority complex and think positive about TM for a change. I'm not suggesting we "do a Saudi" and go about our world class opponents all arrogant and over-confident but the players should believe in their own talents and abilities.

I believe that June 11 will be the start of something very special for us. 11 mighty Persian lions (or 10, minus Daei ) will step out against Mexico and match or better them to every ball, challenge and opportunity. We will play like Korea did recently and defeat Mexico...3 points.

Portugal will be desperate to banish the memory of their 2002 disaster and 2004 euro final loss, so they'll be pretty mad at any team they play. I'm already having nightmares about the Deco, Ronaldo, Figo combo in midfield Portugal are fairly inconsistant though, and it depends what Portugal turns up on the day, I think we'll lose this one though....

Angola were shockingly bad in the African Cup and they look like a very sub-standard team, which is a shame to be honest. Their "star striker" Akwa looked even worse than Daei and the team had no direction or gameplan in the matches I saw...so, another 3 points in the bag!!

6 points from the group and a last 16 match with Holland

[headcounciluta]

am i the only one saying we're going to win every match???

Iran will finish w/ 9 points
