Iran qualifying schedule has been changed (Iran vs Bahrain will be played 2nd)

[DJPedram]

I have few question for this change:

1. Are matches played at the same time or different time on the same day?
2. Why did Iran vs Bahrain game was suppose to be the third match out of the 4, but now the schedule has changed Iran will play Bahrain at the 2nd game.
3. Iran vs Iraq is our last match --- this means that Iran will play first then its Bahrain who will play after us, they will know the results of Iran match and will do anything to get through as the 2nd team of the group.

So many question about this.

Sorry to say this but if we need to rely on a bahrain result in the last game to qualify in the 1st round of qualifying... its oir own problem

Please send this to AFC:

Hi,
Iran was originally scheduled to play Bahrain on 3rd match out of the 4 remaining matches. Now the new schedule is showing Iran will be playing the 2nd match against Bahrain. what was the reason for this change? will the matches be played at the same time during the same day?

Sorry but we are being screwed by AFC, this is wrong in many levels. Now you take our hosting sure. but you cant change the schedule as you see fit.

The schedule may actually help us. We rest our players in the 3rd game before playing Iraq in the last game

Blame shit bag IFF! Apparantly they had 2 days to prepare the documents! And the previous IFF also didn't do anything!

Blamd IFF!

We don't need to rely on anybody. We will win every remaining match and will top the group.

Did you read the excuses? They were not 2 day issues to fix!

I disagree with this...Iran could easily get 2 wins back to back and go in the third game with winning momentum.

what does IFF has to do with this. Maybe they couldnt secure us being the host. But AFC did change the schedule without any reasoning.

still no body knows as to why the schedule has been changed.

We all know why. This is the AFC. There is probably some advantage for Bahrain.

It is obvious. AFC is controlled by Persian Gulf Sheikhs. They would do anything to gain advantage. But we are strong enough not to worry about that.

are we assuming or we know this as a fact?

No, but none of us are privy to inner AFC workings.
In the end, we can make an assumption based on precedent.
