I thought that would be Baggio like that one...
Iran hits post. Here we go for Iraq
I am having kittens here. What a match!
Oh dear
Iraq win game over!!!!
Game for the Ages
And there goes NHpeters money lol
Talk about nerve reacking
Like like like.
Neither goalie looked capable of saving a shot, had to be striker error
Fantastic stuff. The Mahmoud penalty was a brilliant moment. Hard luck Iran.
I feel terrible for the Iranians but that was one helluva game...

Iran's keeper jumped a little bit to early
Phew - need a breath...
Now Japan v UAE.
How about the chip penalty by Iraq in the shootout?! Insane!
UAE can't win. No consonants.
And now the UAE are 1-0 up
Crikey
I think I'm going to take a pounding tonight.
I like watching the A league, but boy oh boy this Asian cup has been something else
Yeah - all my winnings about to be flushed (perhaps)
And the drama continues, what a night of football.
Anyone got a link for the Japan game ?
Good o
Nice work from Japan ulucky with finish.
I can't deal with any more drama tonight.
I love watching Abdulrahman play. fantastic passing. It's like watching an arabic Vinnie Lia.
I can't deal with any more drama tonight.
I know how you feel.
Japan missing urgency.
Hope they keep the fancy dug outs for the A-League.

I'd rather they didn't so Gumbee has to piss and moan about something.
UAE playing a good game plan, but Japan could be back in the game if they can get their first touches to stick a bit more.
Surely Japan wont be that lethargic in the 2nd half. Either they truly are tired or else the coach's complaints about playing too many games in a short space of time has psychologically sucked the life out of them.
Commentator (I think it was Hill) said they played their first team for all the games so far. Maybe catching up with them.
Put 50 on UAE to win this, the biggest bet I've made in years, but disappointed with match so far. Omar not even going awesome. Still, c'mon UAE! Omar to go wide in second half could be better I reckon, but they need to hold the ball better, not be scared by being ahead vs Japan and go for a 2nd goal. Don't need to throw men forward, just hold the ball better, own it like they were doing before going ahead and how they dominated Iran.

They forgot to mention that so have UAE.
Shot of a FKW in the crowd?
Cahill would have got that.
Japan have certainly upped the tempo and have had some nice passages but UAE look pretty tight in defense.
A game of attrition...
OAR is a fantastic player but man he is lazy when it comes to pressing, tracking back and defending.
