Qatar will be hosting the FIFA World Cup in year 2022 and I think the Qatar national football team has improved a lot, I never expected Qatar to be able to beat Saudi Arabia by 2 goals in their match yesterday, even though Qatar wasted a very good chance to score from the penalty awarded to them but they are still able to beat Saudi Arabia with the scoreline of 2-0 at the final whistle, I will be looking forward to see Qatar playing in the FIFA World Cup at the year of 2022.

Both Japan and Uzbekistan have already won all their previous matches played in Group F and today we will see both of these teams playing against each other. Even though Japan are a well known team for their offensive play style but I think the defense of Uzbekistan is pretty good too, I guess we might see this match ending up with a draw at the final whistle today.
I do not think Uzbekistan can make it draw. It may be hard to get a win for Japan but they will definitely do it. Japan has well played good enough in world cup 2018. Besides, their ranking is 50, on the other hand, Uzbekistan is sitting at 95. Since their defence is good, they may defend well but at the end, Japan will take the lead. By the way, in football, ranking affects barely.
It is a hard game anyway and it's difficult to predict. Same thing for Saudi Arabia and Qatar which the game will take more than a sport dimension, it is basically a political war inside the football stadium. Better for Saudis to win or else they will have a bad treat from MBS and his pals.
At the end, Japan made it. They won by 2-1 although Uzbekistan scored first. I thought Japan will not be able to score when they were behind by 1-0 but they almost scored in at the same time. Anyway, it was a nice comeback and win for Japan.

Qatar has proved again to be one of the best teams in this competition beating Saudi Arabia one of the top nominated teams to win the Asian Cup
this game in particular I was expecting Saudi Arabia to win or game to end as a draw , cause you all know the political problem between these two countries and the stadium was full of Saudi fans so thought this may be a problem for Qatar
but if Qatar can beat Saudi with the current circumstances I guess this means that Qatar can handle big teams in the future

I wished tho that Qatar will face Japan instead of Iraq in the next stage , cause for me I really find Japan overrated this year and small teams like Qatar and Iraq are doing better job

Yeah, good day for me as my three-legged AFC parlay worked out. Japan won, Lebanon won, pretty comfortably in the end, and Qatar took it so I collected almost 7/1. Saudis had the lion's share of possession, created a lot more chances, and like you said, had the vocal support - but in the end the Qatari's quality made the difference. Definitely stamped their mark, and teams may be wondering about them in 3 years' time too... when they play at World Cup stage. Still an unknown factor.

Japan totally overrated agree, yet I still think they will go far. Thing about experience, and when they do play well, they are quite incredible as a team. The smaller teams still rely on several stars IMO.

But still no one scores a goal and it looks like it will be a draw like as Barcode_ said. I do not think Japan can score today because Uzbekistan has a good defense and they will save. Let's see what happen.

I didn't make single bets on yesterday's games, again using South Korea and Vietnam to pad up other parlays (they won, but stupid results in other countries meant I lost anyway).

You got your over 1.5 goals, they're definitely the favourites, but now that darkhorse Syria is out, I still harbour some small hopes for SEA through Vietnam or Thailand, but my personal pick is Qatar like you, and maybe Japan to at least reach the final. So today, I'm betting on Japan and Qatar, big games both!

Iran-Iraq turned out to be a scoreless, but at least both sides had shots, yellow cards meant a lot of spirit too!

RIP the Syrian Dream  Cry

players played really great , they needed some little luck and better defense
the spirit today was great , it just confirms for me how bad Bernd Stange was for the team especially that he had the biggest salary for a coach in Syrian history
local Syrian coaches don't even get 2% of what Stange got , so money invested on that coach was totally wasted

anyway still plenty of matches to watch , lost my outrights for Syria but I still have Qatar to be best west asian team that can recover all if the Qataris kept their performance at the same level

I know... Sorry about that brother. In some ways, the players redeemed themselves threatening to at least get 1 point from the strongest team in the group, but it wasn't to be.

You're right, it was the wrong manager, and if they had just switched to a local guy just like the Thais did after the first game, who knows? Always strange for me even in my country, we send homegrown coaches and ex players fpr training and licences but in the end we get some foreign guy who to me always falls short anyway. Sometimes we just got to trust our men, the Thais did for a long time and got results.

Anyway, I don't have outrights but still like you betting on Qatar and for me Japan seem to have helped so far. Let's see.

thanks buddy
I still prefer a foreign coach , but a truly good coach not just a random German guy
Bernd Stange had zero achievements and most of the teams he coached fired him , the ones who brought him to Syria shouldn't be tolerated and should be fired

for today i have two bets that I made few days ago but didn't share here cause I tend to write my plays on the day of the match

I'm taking Iran to win X1.88 Bitgame odds ( unibet ) : this is the classico , Iran vs Iraq matches have always been amazing
both teams are great but the Iranian players are a little bit better and they are experienced as well , the game should be really fun and I'm not expecting an easy match but I'm going for Iran

I also have Korea to score over 1.5 goals X2.03 Sportsbet ( after boost ) : Korea is playing great football and they are the favor in all the bookies that I know to win the whole Asian cup
they have perfect team in all the lines , somehow their last 2 games they failed to score more than one goal
but I see the odds really nice for it and I guess bookies are over reacting for the fact that Korea failed to score more than one goal in the last games

We only have one team in that sport and is supported by all of my people. Im glad you posted this thread and i will just look for an update here rather to watch TV. The truth is, i dont have enough time to watch a game because of a strict time management. Its so hard to work, crypto and having business at the same time.

Watching scores here on this thread is not much entertaining as watching the match Live or on television.  Unless you have really busy schedule and cannot watch the match, then getting the scores online will only be for the information purpose .

It was really a bad luck for syria, they have lost in the last minutes. They played well. Got score after Australia scored. It was really unbelievable for me that Tom Rogic scored in the last minutes. Because of my busy, I was not able to watch the last couple of minites. I thought it will be a drawn.

@Sy what do you think? If Syria can win, and Palestine either draw or lose, they're still through to next stage. If Palestine get a surprise win though, then even a win won't be enough.

Bottom line, they need to win against the strongest team in the group, to at least finish 3rd and still have a chance to qualify. Jordan did it, though, so worth a bet? I think so @7.3 Wink

Good luck Syria! Jordan deserves to top the group in any case, for their big wins.

Syria is guaranteed to qualify if they win , even if Palestine and Syria took 3rd place they are both guaranteed to qualify at least as best 3rd in groups since there are plenty of other teams in other groups that have 0 points

to be honest looking at how Syria played in their last games things aren't looking good
but since Syria dumped Bernd Stange and now Fajr Ibrahim is the new manager players may play differently

Bernd Stange is the reason that Syria wasted last games points , his plans were really bad and he couldn't figure out a single good plan to play with

I'm taking Syria to win as a yolo bet at X7.00 , if players fought the same way they did in WC qualification Australia will truly suffer
Syria was so close to beat Australia in WC qualification and Australia at that time had way better team than they have now

The odds payout for the match between India and Bahrain set by bookmakers is really confusing me, as India have managed to beat Thailand with an amazing scoreline of 4-1, and Thailand won their last match against Bahrain with the final score of 1-0 in this tournament, but the bookmakers are favoring Bahrain to beat India today as the odds payout for India to win the match in full time is @3.95, I guess I will just skip betting on this match today as it might be a trap to lure gamblers to place their bets on India to win the match with the high attractive odds payout.

I think that 4-1 score was still a huge anomaly. India isn't a good footballing team, cricket is still their thing, and that was a Thai team instructed to defend, when all they've been training to do is attack and press and harry. They showed they can win properly, as demonstrated by the 1-0 upset against Bahrain.

Still, you could be right, this group is strange and we could still see upsets from Thailand against UAE (but I am thinking the gulf state will win)... but I don't see how India can even hold Bahrain... they couldn't beat Thailand but they overpower India in every aspect... attack, defence, physicality.

India deserves better than to have crashed out after the group stages. I particularly enjoyed their first game and it was a spirited performance from the young lads and looking at this group I think they should have qualified along side UAE.

I never expected North Korea to be such a weak team now as North Korea had managed to qualify for the world cup in year 2010 held in South Africa before, Qatar thrashed North Korea with a total of 6 goals today and the final result of 6-0 is such a humiliating scoreline for North Korea.

I’ll second that North Korea poor game play stunned me too, look at the number of fowls they committed, they simply had no momentum going for themselves. If you look at Qatar they hit total 13 shots on target, and managed to convert 6 of them, and almost made double the passes that North Korea could make which says it all about Korea performance. I believe we have an interesting match today where India needs a win to create history for themselves, and with a leaky Baharain defence against them I would favour team India to win.
