Iran’s Journey to Russia Starts at the “Door to Hell”

Iran 2-2 Turkmenistan
















Waiting for the first idiot to reply to my post having missed this sentence.

I don't know if you guys witnessed the Guam and Turkmenistan game, but it was brutal to watch as both teams really sucked. It was hard to say which team was worse. Guam made history by recording their first win against Turkmenistan in their joke of a stadium, and I was receiving stress by their lack of precision is passing, crossing or even shooting. Their cameras suck and they do not really have professional commentators. So there will be a possibility of not watching Iran triumph against Guam on TV, but I'm hoping that will not be true. If we can manage to win by 6 or 7 goals against Turkmentistan I will be satisfied, because they lack as a team, and there is not much of a distance between our nations to say our boys were tired or jet lagged. If we managed to beat the Uzbeks 1-0 away with the debuts of six new players, we could at least win by scoring more goals with our more experienced players instead. I know most of you are thinking of seeing a younger team against the Turks, but be sure that CQ would not do that. As you guys should recall, CQ wanst to blend TM slowly by adding new players, so that the teamwork is maintained without any big changes being made. The players may have had a taste of what its like to play against an international team, but in this next game I'm sure we'll see either Akhbari or Beiranvand in goal. The reason behind that was Haghighi was the only choice for first keeper for the friendly because of the competitiveness of that game cannot be comparable to what we face in the next few days, and it is clear that Makani is being used as a backup to Haghighi or just CQ owes him that for his ghayrat when he got attacked after the game in Seoul. In conclusion, my prediction would be "Iran 7 Turkmenistan 0".

^Guam's playing their home game in Iran.

No, Guam requested to have their home game in Iran and IFF accepted it.

That would be delightful if you have a source.

[PersianLegion]

We can give Guam's captain an Abkesh as a gift!

[RaginG Inferno]

We should win by at least four goals, but I'm thinking we'll win by six.

Here is the source for everyone asking if the Guam's home game will also be in Iran :

But according to Peyrovani, the game will be in Iran but not at Azadi, they will probably play them in a "Shahrestan" Probably, Karaj

International source please. Why in Iran and only against Iran, would be a logical question.

[TheBoss]

International source please. Why in Iran and only against Iran, would be a logical question.

hmmm... couldn't find anything in english, but i don't think Peyrovani a man so trusted by CQ, would say they, the Guam FF have asked to play in Iran, if there wasn't anything there.

also, it's important to note, before the game against Turkmenistan, Guam had never hosted another country in Guam for WCQ.

[Abtin]

Lol stop complaining and crying for "international sources", at least we will have broadcast available. If we were to play in Guam, y'all would be like "why isn't there no broadcast, marg bar AFC!!"..

[Rooyintan]

I had the same idea and concepts for writing a similar article for Persianfootball.com but you beat me to it

Now I've got to think how to write it

[persianpopinjay]

I could be wrong, but maybe Guam reckons it'd be a good way to gain exposure in two high-profile matches against Iran. At least our cameras are decent enough for TV broadcast.
Other sources haven't yet confirmed the venue, and as to whether it's only Iran, is unclear. The venue for the home leg of Oman v Guam also hasn't been confirmed yet.

[Bessos]

Wow I thought you guys were trolling about Guam asking to play their home match in Iran.

Lol maybe they are too emberassed to invite us over to Guam and have us witness their crappy field / cameras?
After all it's Iran! The #1 ranked team of Asia!!
Little do they know how emberassed we are ourselves about our own federation's management.

[OFFSIDE_1]

Anyway the former name of a club can be simply a coincidence because that stadium is the newly built Turkmen arena and it shows they want to take full host advantage by getting a draw from us. They know if the match was in Eshgh Abad, many Iranians could go there since it is not far from Iranian border. India did the same thing they only moved Iran and Oman match to Bangalore because of humidity and hoping for rain fill the pitch so we can not control the ball while they are used to this type of game.

and we should be doing the same. I have never understood why we do not hold in games in other venues except for Azadi when we play the arab countries. We insist on providing them the best playing environment and many times a half empty stadium when we could easily make their lives miserable playing in a cold city like Tabriz with fans that will fill up stadiums.

[Doctor DOOM]

Hmmm ... door to ''HELL''? I hardly think they are much of a threat , let alone being ''hell''.

Yes, they have had a few draws against us. But to make them sound threatening may be a bit too much, bro.

I predict a very COMFORTABLE win for us actually
