    The other dudes on Big Soccer have these things so I thought why not?

    I really hope Ahmed Al-Mousa and Nasser Al-Shamrani should start in this match. OH, and no playing two Defensive Midfielders this time Johar okay?

    My prediction

    2-0 for Saudi Arabia.

    Any comments on this match?

    No offense to the Yemeni brothers, but, KSA should be winning this game. The important thing is to beat them by a greater margin than UAE did.

    I don't like how so many of the matches are ending in draws ..takes away all the excitement from the cup.

    Best of luck to the green falcons for this game. ;)

    Wow, four goals and its only been 18 minutes ... have to say the goals were all good finishes so far.
    I wonder if they're going to slow down a bit .. this could become embarrassing.

    Now that Ahmed Al-Mousa and Ahmed Otaif are in the midfield, Saudi Arabia have gotten some life in their midfield.

    5-0 at the break!


    PLEASE PLEASE LET NASSER AL-SHAMRANI BE ON IN THE SECOND HALF!

    Also, why was Khalid Aziz carded? Did the Yemeni player dive?

    From goalzz.com it seemed that Yaser al qahtani and Malek Moath are playing. Hopefully they will be back in full form in World cup 2010 qualification.

    Yaser didn't seem to be in great form against Yemen despite scoring the first goal.

    The FA's policy towards Yasser seems to be "if he can walk on one leg, he's playing."

    A good score, but the real question is will they keep it up, doubt it. These players play accoriding to their mood. Criticize them hard and they wake up and play good. Praise them and they screw up.

    Al-Qahtani seemed to be walking just fine.
