in 2006 our campaign was over in the 1st match after that stupid gift goal our keeper gave to mexico. now this. but i mean not all hope is lost. even a point today may have not made any difference if bosnia or nigeria beat each other. but if they tie it would be a horrible feeling.
All the Iranian fans here: Walk proud and hold your heads up. We are proud of our team. No matter what Bosnians say, the whole world admit how great we were. Who cares what some people say? Even they know we deserve respect
I am a honest man. You are right but it was Bosnians too. Some cocky attitudes and belittling of Iran fuelled this so called BS rivalry. Both Iran NT and Bosnia NT have more respect for each other than members here. What is so disgusting is that because Iran lost in 91st min in a tough fought game...some Bosnian members have used the opportunity in an attempt to belittle Iran. Iranian BS members didn't post ignorant one-liners when you guys lost to Argentina at least!! Plus, some say it's because they don't like Iran's "anti-football" but you don't see the Nigerians and Argentinians doing this....
You cant and shouldnt use a linesman for a foul on that side of the box , the referee was in good position , also after reviewing the replay up close , I believe it was not a PK regardless of the angle the ref had
Tough loss, conceding in extra time. But if Bosnia ends up beating Nigeria (which I think they will) it would not have mattered if we drew or lost to Argentina. They key match is going to be against Bosnia. But no matter what happens, Im so proud of our team. Everyone expected Iran to get humiliated but we earned some respect today. Especially the 2nd half where Iran started to show offensive flair and Gucci with those monster chances. Heroic performance by Iran. They made us proud today.
Everybody needs to calm down, this is simply a case of one side think they're team is superior vs another side who feels the same... No need to act horrified and condemn a whole nation over it, also no need to insult anyone for having belief in their team. Tonight's game will show us a little peak into who has the better team, and on Wednesday all questions will be answered.
You didn't hurt my feelings. I just fight for what's right whether it's in this forum or in the bar I just watched this game at before coming home. Even if it's about other teams. Good to see you put in a post that finally doesn't insult Iran's NT. Peace
some bosnians here cannot take the fact that Iran drew or even beat argentina (- referees help) today, compared to their clear-cut loss against an argentina who played even worse against them (specially in the 2nd half, using an experimental formation). this hurts their pride because they thought Iran is a joke team yet Iran has been better than bosnia.
youre wrong. i just enjoy all the bs youve said and then you concede in the 91th minute. karma. i wont say any names beacuse those who said argentina doesent stands a chance to beat iran and iran will get a result they know who theyre.
^Iranian BS members. Let whoever who wants to thrash talk over Iran do it. Every single fan who watched the game knows what they saw. They have their own way of dealing with it. It's okay. Emotions play apart in football fans' logic. Every single neutral fan and expert has praised Iran. We don't need to convince a couple Bosnians online of their clouded judgements on this game. Let's just wait and see what happens tonight and in the last round of matches. Good luck to all teams. ABOVE ALL AND ON TOPIC: CONGRATS TO ARGENTINA to secure their ticket to the round of 16 with a 91st min stunner!
There was a reason Argentina used 5 defenders against us, because they respected and feared our attack. We played them hard and had them on the ropes for long portions of the game, but in the end we lost fair and square. What's done is done, tonight is the real test, and if we don't beat Nigeria we don't deserve to go through for the KO stages this year anyways.
Football has won today. It feels great to beat a team that didn't want to play football but just defend and pray our guys didn't have any brilliant moment. Well, that didn't happen.
The thing is some people are trembling with fear. They know they will have the most difficult match of the whole tournament. The thing is we earned it today. If it wasn't for referee we would not lose in a million years. We were amazing. The whole world admit that. Let's now focus on Bosnia. I really want to beat them so bad. The way they celebrated our loss shows how frightened they are. They know they are not even a top quality team and they saw how desperate Argentina was against us. We did not lose to Argentina. We lost to a one-man team! I remember I said It will be a hell on earth for Argentina and it was. It will be even worse for Bosnia. We are coming for you.
Don't worry, I've a whole document with your quotes of this match and against Bosnia. I will post it when the time is in.
We achieved something more. Now if we want to go back in time to the day of the draws NO TEAM WOULD EVER BE HAPPY TO BE IN THE SAME GROUP WITH US!
I STAND BY EVERY SINGLE THING I HAVE SAID! So go for it... And wait a little bit. This match we did as I had said! We lost a game we deserved to get a result and even you know it! So I stand by it!
and argentina will rue not having used 5 defenders against us, needing the referees help to not concede against us. actions speak louder than opinions.
So....you apparently have a lot of free time on your hands to basically stalk one member's posts and generalize it on every Iranian when you guys predicted thrashing score lines for Iran games in GROUPS for a whole year. Sad....
