The Asian Football Thread

There is Hugh number of people with arab blood line in s.america.

Population of Chile is 1 percent Palestinian - loads of Chileans in the Palestine squad
some Syrians in Argentina I believe a few of them were even in the squad for the Asian cup
some Lebanese in Colombia and Venezuela but I don’t think that minority produced any footballers

They are mostly Lebanese. One thing I’m sure of is that there aren’t many Ethnic Emiratis in South America.

Majority consider themselves arabs with no border.

Lebanon was part of sham/ syria 100 years ago less,
it's interesting to see when these people immigrated there.

Looks like they are making a finally push for qualification

For the playoff...

Their best Brazilian I'd say is actually Marcus Meloni who plays LB/LM who is already playing for them and from what it looks like...is yellow card suspended vs Iran.

It will very poetic to see two Arab teams use Brazilian mercenaries to eliminate each other in the playoff round 😍

you’ve been saying similar things about anyone who is not Iran. It’s like saying it’s going to
rain one day.

There is no one else in Asia to talk about like this. Usual suspects KR, JP, AUS are doing their thing, and mid east football is going nowhere.
