Tough group. Iran being the toughest opponent. Iran gave us a 19-0 defeat and that was 15 years ago. We have vastly improved since then, but we will probably lose. I can't imagine the Mataos playing in the Azadi stadium. Surreal. Anyway, hoping for the best. Biba Matao!
I saw this posted on the Korea board: I'm not sure if the home team is listed first or second in the above schedule but according to this: Guam-Turkmenistan on June 11 Guam-India on June 16
Hopefully, I'm still on the island until then. Would be great if we're hosting the match at GFA, I live like 5 minutes away.
fifa.com confirm both matches in June will be at home. Full 2015 schedule : http://www.fifa.com/world-match-centre/teams/country=gum/matches/index.html

Turkmenistan cancelled their friendly with Global FC of the Philippines, so they will be flying directly to Guam without a friendly against a team from abroad.
For those that can't attend the match: (Stream will be available on GuamFA.com 4:15 PM Guam time) Big shout out to Docomo Pacific for putting together the live broadcast and live stream for our World Cup qualifiers. Local ch. 2 & gfa. com— Jason Cunliffe (@JasonRQCunliffe) June 10, 2015 Also, it's available on Docomo Pacific channel 2 for any Guam residents reading this thread.

First ever WCQ match win and I was there to witness it. 1st half, we dominated and the scoreline should have been 2-0. 2nd half, we lost steam and Turkmenistan bombarded us with attacks, but our defense held them well. Full time:
