We dominated until the goal, after which as expected we started playing more conservative and gifting the possession to Uzbekistan. To me it seems like Iran is totally in control the entire half, hopefully we get one more on the counter the 2nd half. We just need focus
Iran pretty much has had the entire match in control, except maybe the last 4 minutes. Diego is delusional. A guy that thinks he looks European is way more delusional to get embarrassed by this score line. Unless you score 8 he won't feel it. I can't let this European thing go. They literally look Mexican, Russian-Chinese, Chinese-Iranian, Arab, Iranian-Iranian... etc... Everything except European. And Diego is out here wasting our time with nonsense.
In all honesty, we have the 3 points in our bag if we don't give up too much control. This Uzbekistan team doesn't look dangerous, if we don't give them the confidence to be so. We have to score the 2nd goal early to finish things and sit back for the remainder of the game. First half was much better than what I have seen against Qatar and China. And what a player Shojaei is lately, he has been so crucial for Team Melli.
What sort of line up is that. Hajisafi Amiri and Mohamadi are in the field we don't have Dejagah, Jahanbakhsh, Torabi and Ando but Taremi is there! Can you see the actual line up? I don't have the commentary which is suck.
Btw Uzbekistan is playing 4-4-2 with two forwards since Djeparov got injured, hopefully it opens up the game and we can get one more on the counter. We better not concede
The key is that we are going into HT with being up 1-0, we can come with a new plan for the remainder of the game and eventually win
Ah ok, other links are usually always down for Iran matches because of the high traffic of Iranians lol
This doesn't work? I'm in Canada. No proxy. Use Hola if it does't work (extension on Chrome). Pick a North American IP.
We are in defensive fold and Uzbeks are attacking. This is not good. We need to put pressure on Uzbeks and score another goal. They won't function under pressure. Not having Odil is hurting Uzbeks big time specially in the center. I think CQ has kept Dejagah, Jahanbakhsh, Azmoun and Torabi for our match against S.Korea. We are playing with 70% of our first choices. Shireeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Beiroooooooooo
That is CQ's conservative style. Score goal and go to defensive fold. We can dominate the match easily but CQ won't like to risk it. Azmoun is coming.
