OMAN national football team

[BacheLot]

getting an early goal against them is vital to somewhat comfortable win..! if they withstand our likely early offensive storm, then they certainly have the pedigree to take us all the way into PKs and who knows what happens then..!!

Oman like EVERY other Arab team will Play at 120% of their potential, what we say vs Japan and Uzbekistan will be an even tougher game! They will fight tooth and nail to even get a draw and hope to win on Penalties, what TM should and Can do to destroy their moral is to score a goal in the first half and this will deflate the Omanis by 50% !! WE can then go for another one and slay the beast !!

I think he retired from their NT if you mean Al-Habsi since he isn't in the squad

Al-Habsi got injured just before this tournament. He would have been the starting goalkeeper.

Iran got a good break with heading their group and playing ( a much weakened) Oman!! Poor Iraq, they will Struggle against a resurgent Qatar and it will be an interesting game!

The 3-1 score against Turkmenistan was misleading. The Oman team faced a very shaky TKM goalkeeper who made silly mistakes you don't expect to see from a national side player. 3 or 4 unnecessary corners, punching out balls when he could have easily kept possession. Not saying this would be an easy win, but it would be shocking if this match goes to PK

We are over analyzing the Oman game, this is going to be a blow out... enjoy the show!

I wont even look at their roster... no further analysis is needed on Oman. Guaranteed Win

If qatar and iran go to final and qatar wins, are we still going to qualify to confederations cup?

The Confederations Cup is going to be replaced by the expanded club World Cup.

If I remember correctly, in 2004 AC we played Oman in that memorable game coming back from 0-2 deficit to tie it in 90 plus minutes. Badavi and Rahman fought each other on the pitch. We were grouped with Japan and played them to a draw in our last group match forcing Oman from advancing to the next round. Omanis complained about gav bandi between Iran and Japan intentionally playing for a draw.

We will win but we must let them come and we make counter attack football and use there mistakes in one moment of the match. We need to defend with 11 like we did agrainst Spain and attack with counter. We must not play for penalty's but make it and not forget to score!

[jack7000]

Oman has a very good goalkeeper. The game should not go to penalties.

I think he retired from their NT if you mean Al-Habsi since he isn't in the squad

Sardar scored both goals against Oman in the 2-0 win in 2016. He should have his confidence up for this one.

[Irannn]

traditionally one of the most underrated arab teams..!
they always play us tough and we often have a hard time beating them..!!

i havent seen any of their group games this time around, wonder how good of a side are they now..?

i expect a somewhat challenging game regardless, but im pretty confident we will manage to get by them and into quarters..!

They played very good so far, very unlucky against Uzbekistan losing the match in last minutes after missing so many chances and got robbed against Japan. they denied a clear penalty and Japan's goal was no penalty. they struggled against Turkmenistan but they played their heart out in last 10 minutes and scored 2 goals to qualify. that last second goal in 93rd minute turned out to be crucial

I see only few teams better than Oman in this tournament so far, they will also have lots of fans in the stadium. we should not be afraid of them but we have to be very careful. this match can easily send us home if we underestimate them.
