    Thailand on top.

    Indonesia are pathetic to be kicked out so late.

    Afc still has a chance to invite a playoff loser side

    This is ridiculous. Just let a play-off loser advance.

    Is there a chance that Indonesia can participate again if their ban is lifted? (as some sources say that the games are postponed, not cancelled)

    Very easy group for Iraq a bunch of minnows. If we don't get all 6 wins with a huge goal difference I would be very disappointed.

    Last time we gave an belting to an minnow was in 2011 against Singapore, 7-1. I think this might turn out 2-0.

    If Iraq is at her best 5-0, if they are not ready, 2-0.

    Then again it was a friendly and maybe they were trying out tactics or players. Tbh I don't see us getting higher than 4-0. Our attack is weak, and besides we like to sit back and pass around when we score a goal.

    We will see. I have a good feeling IMO. Hopefully the likes of Marwan and Meram will express themselves upfront.

    Because in the Asian Games 3 senior players are allowed (Olympic rules).

    In that case the real outcome of that match would have been 0-0 if both team played with only their U23 players. Younes Mahmoud scored the goal for Iraq in that match.

    Actually it's the opposite. If Younis plays we are in a disadvantage, as he is way past it.
    Hopefully the coach drops him, and start with Marwan Hussein.

    This game is crucial, and we should get the 3 points at any cost.

    I am not talking about now but that match against Thailand. He helped your team a lot. It is funny that you discard him whenever it suits you, and praise him the other times. Anyway have fun against Thailand.

    When did I praise him? He ruins our team with his presence. He is too old, unfit and clubless.

    Well as far as I know Iraqi's wanted him and the other veteran players out as soon as we failed to qualify for 2010 World Cup.

    He is totally useless at this point. Hopefully the coach will give Marwan the starters position. At the very least sub Younis in for the last 20 mins, not the full 90 mins.
