2022 Qualifiers - Other Games Thread (AFC & beyond)

[The Realist]

SK only winning 1-0 against SYR with 10 minutes to go won’t be taking the nations Hope into Azadi against TM.

[The Realist]

In my humble opinion UAE should pose as a tougher opponent than SK. Not calling SK lame duck but we just have a better mental advantage against them

[Damavand]

1-1 great result if it stands

[Taz]

What a goal that is 🤤

Edit: and they go and waste it with some amateur set-piece defending in 89th minute.

[Damavand]

2-1 Korea

Goal Korea
2-1

[Damavand]

Terrible defending on that set piece

[allan123]

So now South Korea is new Leader with 7 pts

[Damavand]

Damn. The tie game would have put Korea in real trouble and helped us a lot.

[masoud nekounam]

We only need top two, so it's in our best interest if Korea beats all of the Arab teams. I'm fine with the result.

No No. if we want to be placed in pot 3 at the WC we have to come first in this group.

Where did you read that?

Correct. We don't want Arab teams to pick off points so they can screw us if they have one team still in the race in the last two three matchdays.

[Damavand]

We were in pot 3 for WC 2018.

[allan123]

No No. if we want to be placed in pot 3 at the WC we have to come first in this group.

Not true, the world cup Pots is according FIFA RANKINGS
