Israel may qualify for the world cup.

[Super Shojaei]

if israel is drawn in our group then it would be a disaster; why?

1. we actually had a chance to win a wc again after our other enemy (usa)
but IRI would boycot it.
2. this would mean REVELUTION which would mean, innocent ppl getting injured and even killed.. in the end IRI will remain..
3. Iran would be banned for next WC , maybe even 2 WC's in a row
4. NOBODY in the world exept Palestine, lebannon and Syria would play us in the future.
5. many Iranians will be depressed, specially us at PFDC (you source for Iranian Football)
6. I'm sure other bad things would occur.

you know what would be worse, if we play a great WC get to the 2nd round or quarters and have to play vs Israel
I would cry

Yeah that will be our worse nightmare.

I think IR knows better... there would be nothing short of a revolution if they refused to play that match.

[Shamim]

if isreal makes it and we get in the same group and IR makes iran to leave then we will see a REVOLUTION! people will go crazy and cut of ahmadinjads head.

Its in 2010, lets pray that monkey is not going to be our president till that time.

that's on way we could look at it.
but it ain't that easy, it will result in many deaths.

In a way, I almost want Israel to qualify and be drawn with Iran. The WC is too big of a deal for Iran to forfit like they do in the Olympics and it would force Iran to finally end this saga of refusing to face Israel. It's ridiculous that we complain so much about politics being mixed with sport when we are the biggest offenders.

This being said, if Iran was to get drawn with Israel, forfit and then be banned by FIFA it would truely be a sad day.....

[Babak agha]

Ok lets say they make it, but who says we make it..? hehe
But even if we get drawn in other group, maybe th IR will still decide not to play the WC as Isreal is no country, thus the WC isn't a real WC as there is a team competing that's no country.

Something like the swim accident in beijing..., the guy didn't compete because an Israeli was aso competing in the race. Isreal is no country, so the race is not legit.

Or the IR will fall and the new dictator will be an Esteqlal fan

Moldova - Israel today, i predict a 0-0 stalemate or a 0-1 win for Israel

[Demis-11]

ahh YES MOLDOVA 1-0!!! 1ST MINUTE OF THE GAME

[Martin-Reza]

lol, but I doubt it will stay like this.

[Demis-11]

you never know, Ben Sahar, Israels best striker went out injured, Moldova is a hungry team..they tied Turkey 1-1 last year and Greece barely beat them both games

[Soorakhian]

Moldova is up 1-0 after 31 minutes.

[Martin-Reza]

1-1 now shortly before halftime.

[Super Shojaei]
