Japan vs Mexico should be very interesting.

The were comprehensively beaten 3-1 by Great Britain, no matter how "beautifully" you believe they passed the ball.

They conceded the most goals out of all the teams (six conceded, only 2 shy of their big brothers, the 8-0ers) and are statistically the worst team in the tournament, ranked 16th out of 16 teams. They go back home to the Persian Gulf with their tail between their legs.

I think what Super Shojaei jan is trying to say is that even tho uae lack passion and drive..they played very crisply..like a world class team does..its not always about scoring goals or winning..its also about how you play the game..and they played very calm and collected..they lack the drive that other teams like iran and sk have..but honestly i think we all would be impressed if our team ever played that cool..even if they sucked

LOL shame on the confederation? Against great britain they passed the ball beautifully and retained posesion well. Against Uruguay they were very very unlucky to lose. I just don't believe you watched the games, in what way were UAE dominated? "shame upon the asian confederation" come on man, they didn't. Its just sour grapes that they are there instead of us. IFF's incompetence? we got thrashed at home by a bigger margin than UAE did against Uruguay and Great Britain regardless. I don't think you're posting seriously man, it seems like you're against them purely because they are "arab"

The Koreans and Japanese people should be very proud of what they're achieveing in football

^ Great job!! Now we won't feel as bad anytime Iran goes down to Korea, lol.

At least you are a proven world class team.

Thanks Paradigm!
I hope Iran qualifies with Korea for the next Olympics!

[Super Shojaei]

I did watch the games. UAE were dominated, bringing shame upon themselves and the Asian confederation.



We lost against Iraq, due to IFF's incompetence in fielding an illegible player, one of the legs being awarded to Iraq 3-0.
