2016 AFC U-19 Championship

Go Tajikistan&Uzbekistan

 

I have a feeling that Qatar will win this game again...

 

Good group for Iraq. Lets hope our boys do something this year.

 

no need to worry about this generation of UZB, Abdukhalikov, Ganiyev and Mukhiddinov already have ACL games experience at this young age
Bobur aka "Pele" Abdukholikov (18 y.o.) - 2 goals in 4 ACL games

 

I'm wondering about the hosts Bahrain, they struggled in the qualifying competition, are they actually any good?

 

13. Yes 14 for your team.

 

- Group A
Bahrain (hosts)
Thailand
South Korea
Saudi Arabia

- Group B
North Korea
UAE
Iraq
Vietnam

- Group C
Qatar
Japan
Yemen
Iran

- Group D
Uzbekistan
China
Australia
Tajikistan

My group stage prediction

 

Not very optimistic about this generation of UAE?

 

VietNam 2 - 1 North Korea

 

Japan 3 - 0 Yemen

 

Iraq 1-0 UAE

 

What is the mascot? A crow?

 

either a Falcon or an Eagle, crow used to be Japan's before moving to Pikachu
an online site said its a falcon

in 2008 we had 17 years old Ahmed Khalil, the late Theyab Awana was the one who ended the Nawaf Al Abed & co journey


Ahmed Khalil played in 2010 u19 with Omar but they failed to reach the semi

 

Making both U17 & U20 World Cups would be crucial for our youth development.

 

Group A
Bahrain 3-2 Saudi Arabia


Thailand 1-3 South Korea


Group B
VietNam 2 - 1 North Korea


Iraq 1-0 UAE

 

Group C
Japan 3 - 0 Yemen


Qatar 1-1 Iran


Group D
Uzbekistan 2-1 Tajikistan


China 0-1 Australia

 

Our team was shitty as usual. Surely the players themselves are not up to the standard, but the coach should be more responsible. What happened to the lineup in the previous matches? I saw many strange faces in the starting lineup.

 

I don't think this Iranian team make it. My expectation is knock out stage, anything beyond that will be a good achievement.
