Bro think... Cheshmi was suddently injured.. BULLSHIT HAHA CARLOS JUST SAVED CHESHMI FOR PORTUGAL MATCH BECAUSE THATS THE MOST IMPORTANT MATCH AND HE LET MAJID HOSSEINI PLAY AGAINST SPAIN TO SEE HOW HE PLAYS HAHAH.. isnt he a genius my god..

He told you that in a skype call?

[Danoosh]

How will the TM players hold up physically? Have they got enough left in the tank to do another 110km or so in this game? I think that is the crucial question. In the last world cup in the 3rd game the players had spent themselves and couldn't lift their game. Do we have it in us this time around? Had CQ kept some players for this game and will rotate some players? These are the questions for me?

I hope that we dont see a Bosnia 2.0.

I dont know why u even saying things like that. That was another situation, we had 1 point and nothing to play for. roohie bacheham kharab shode bod bad az bazi ba argantin.

Please guys on this forum, not only you, but all persians.. Please stop being negative, also stop bashing Sardar, he is doing his best. Some of you guys are saying bad things about him but i suggest you go there and replace him and score for us!

But yeah Always VIVA IRAN
YA ALI

Completely shut down Ronaldo and then play normal to win.
Portugal is 10 man team plus Ronaldo. he walks around the pitch and takes loads of break to renew his energy. He has been given the licence to go (walk) anywhere and play however he likes. He is like a loose predator. If our players keep an eye on him and don't give him time and space he becomes useless. He is also a professional diver. He runs into your feet and then dives. This always fools the refs as the see contact and see him rolling on the floor. The m****f****r is a bitch. I would love to see the a****h**** eliminated. If Portugal advances it would be all about this narcissist self-centred guy who wants it all. I think he and Messi have had more than their share of the cake. Time for both of them to f*** **f.

Would be to sweet if it is TM who ultimately destroy gaynaldos
hope to win the worldcup!

We won’t see a Bosnia 2-0. The players are much more fit and we have way more rotation options, plus way more quality , and the confidence of a hard fought win already, something that should not be forgotten.

We need to play the same defensive way as Spain , BUT with the ball we need to play like we did in the second half. With CONFIDENCE. Don’t respect the Portuguese when we have possession. We showed vs Spain our players have the quality to trouble any defense . They need to remember this and not play like the end of the first half where they couldn’t hold the ball for one second. With the ball we need to have the same confidence we have without the ball.

We can definitely do it, even guys like schmichael, ballague, are tipping us to do it. If no weird ref shit or injuries happen, I predict a 1-0 win

Start All out D again, but definitely push the D-Line up closer to MF and definitely not so deep ala Spain match ..!!

once boys find their feet and a little frustration sets in for Portugal..! then slowly become more and more open and counter attacking as the game wears on..!! unless penaldo gets his likely PK goal early on against us and then may as well line-up a balanced team and lets duke it out till min 90+..!

have sardar constantly looking to break past any advancing Portuguese defenders and looking threatening than have him stroll side to side middle of the pitch, acting like he is defending or closing passing lanes when its obvious he aint doing neither full heartedly enough to make an ounce of difference in our opponent's attacking approach...!!just tiring himself with useless jogging , especially considering his already weak stamina and the rather long mileage on him already in this WC..!
or just bring him off the bench in 2nd half on a need basis and instead move Taremi to CF and this way make room for Ghoddos in the starting line up..!!
Doubt Haj Safi will be fully fit for this fixture either ..? even if fit, he looked bit fatigued and didn't look all that sharp to me vs Spain, so a rest may do him good..! although I doubt CQ will scratch him off the starting line-up..!!
I like to move Amiri next to Ezzai as our secondary LDM than as LWinger too..!! I think Ebrahimi also is due for a well deserved rest too..! Jahanbakhsh to move into his RW position starting and helping to contain Ronaldo in tandem with Rezaian and hopefully quickly releasing some balls forward for Sardar/Taremi to run on to..!!?

we need Ashkan badly in CAM also...!! he didn't look all that rusty and unfit to me vs Turkey..!! I'd chance starting him, in this do or die match.,!

I really hope the players can give everythink on Monday and work together. As we remember we had to WIN Bosnia to go last 16 by 1:0 and we lost. It feel's bad to think but I hope we have learn form that. We only needed a WIN in our last match with Bosnia in World Cup 2014 even then we had to win 1:0.. Hope monday full concentration and with good tactics and our players playing with full energiek.

I really hope we go to the last 16

Taremi, is head and shoulders above Gucci. He is faster, dribbles better, defends better, passes better and has scored more goals last years than Gucci (and yes i thibk that its more difficult to score in Iran and Qatar than in the Dutch league, where even semi hard wind can defeat the defenders and the goalie to score).

I disagree with the bold part One Trillion Percent!

[Pedram123]

Not sure if he is faster.. He is taller so he naturally takes bigger strides.
BTW on the topic of Gucci, It actually might not be a bad idea to sub him in at the latter stages of the game depending on how the match goes.

We need to WIN monday a draw 0:0 would mean exit for us. It has been already a great World Cup for us! We played very good against Spain we almost play them 1:1 and even we almost WIN Spain if they had not scored that one. If Monday we WIN even by 1:0 it will be historical and we would go to the last 16 for the first time and see Ronaldo go home!

It was already historical this World Cup for us after 20 years we have WIN again and Spain we played beautiful it just was not our luck, hope it will be on monday!

Let's pray all one more time for Team-Melli!

We do lack some quality pace up front, but IDK with Gucci.. He is past his prime and 30 years old. Think he would have been better vs Morocco maybe he would have scored the big chance in the first half squandered by Azmoun.
We have to continue our physical play vs Portugal, and raise a middle finger to the haters (damn that sounded like eminem) - After the result of the first two games.. This is the do or die match... The real world cup final now.. Even if we advance and a couple of our players can't play vs whoever they are up against in round of 16 it doesn't matter.. Just getting there is HUGE.

And also he had yellow from first game, so CQ didn't want him risking 2nd yellow vs Spain. He wants him for Portugal game its obvious.
Also Gucci might be another surprise option. Ideally he could shock Portugal by having all three Gucci, Azmoun, JB triangle on field.
