We are the best asian team because we have a big psychologist as our headcoach who
increase our fighting spirit and disciplin. I havent seen another team with so much
passion and fightin spirit. We are very organized in the defense and if we dont concede
a goal in the first half we have a realistic chance to tie spain or even beat them.

But in terms of passing game, technical abilities and attacking football
i see Japan above Iran.

Japan is playing better than Iran did offensively

Japan is playing better than Iran did offensively

But do we know how Iran would play if Karim el Ahmadi got a red card 3 minutes in?

[Tehranto]

Guys, Japan does not play better than Iran, neither defensively or offensively. You can tell the Colombians are getting tired with essentially playing the game with 10 men. Boreedaan.

you do realize it's 10 versus 11 :-) . Most teams don't sit back and defend when they've been given such a gift starting at minute 3.

and I hope someday FIFA changes this archaic and stupid rule of having a team play with one less player. No other sport does this. Allow the team to substitute a player. People complain about the own goal from morocco. This is much worse. An own goal is a defensive mistake. A loss like this with one less player is a meaningless game.

Japan wining will give Iraninan players extra courage against Spain. No Doubt.
