Iran possible 3rd round draws for WCQ 2018

Thank God we don't have to travel to Australia (although Japan and Far East is pretty bad too)

Yes thankfully we're both in Pot 1. Plus I for one wouldn't have wished for us to be grouped with the Aussies nonetheless.

The most idiotic decision AFC could have thought of. Asia is a huge continent as is, the distance between Far east and West is crazy, let alone traveling to Australia, as you pointed out, it's so unfair to Europe based Legionnaires, and even more injustice to their respective clubs.

6 teams in a group with such tension intensity for each team. Ughhh

Exactly like that. Groups are never fair anyway as there is always a group of death.
Now each team has to play 10 games as opposed to 6. Imagine what it will do to the European based players.

You are a retard

I miss read your comment.. and didn't read the comment you were responding too.. I have read it now and I did see it earlier and didn't think it was worth my time to respond.. I guess you are stupid enough to respond to it bc a third grader can tell 3 groups of 4 will not work when you have 4.5 teams to qualify... but what amazes me is the fact that you have no brains to see that I commented about actual qualification process ... dead giveaway that i miss read your comment...

how can you pick 4.5 teams from three groups? the top of each group and then the top second place team goes through and the other ones are the two half teams?
it wouldnt be fair since one group could be easy then the second place team in that group would be at an advantage

These 3rd. Tier teams in the final round will contribute nothing but spoiling the excitement along with creation of bribery and more corruption.

LOL I am sure all world powerhouse football nations had the same feeing when FIFA increased the teams to 32 [emoji75]

So I have been out of the loop recently, did AFC add more teams for the final round? Because I remember in the last qualifiers, there were 2 groups of 5 teams in each group, or maybe I am mistaken? Could someone kindly confirm?

Yes they did. They wanted more of their corrupt buddies in.

You are a retard

hahahaha that's the truth

The third team of each group will play each other in a home & away game. The winner will play the 4th CONCACAF team.

Iran will make it no matter which group we get in.

This is so stupid. It would make alot more sense to make it 3 groups of 4.
