Today will be the final match of Arabian Gulf Cup, the match will be between Oman vs Bahrain. As today is the final match, we hope the match will be full of competition. If we look at the past statistics of these two teams, Oman has won 4 matches and drawn 1 match in the last 5 matches between these two teams. So I will put Oman team ahead according to past statistics. Now let's see which team can win the final match.
The match will begin in an hour time and I think we shall see a tough competition between the two teams. This match will be played at Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium.
As far as both teams are concerned, Oman defiantly looks strong but then they have the habit of losing in the final. In the last season in 2023, Oman lost to Iraq in the finals. Overall Oman has won the Gulf Cup twice in 2009 and 2017/18 while Bahrain has won the title in 2019 when they beat Saudi Arabia 1-0.
Bahrain has just make epic comeback today that in the first half Bahrain have to conceded by Al-Mushaifri goal but on the second half Bahrain playing with very aggressive and within 2 minutes Bahrain can scores 2 goals and reversing the situation and since group stage Bahrain journey is not easy especially Bahrain have to lost from Yemen for 3rd match of group stage but luckily Bahrain can qualified as group champion and finally they can advances to the final match and beat Oman today and this result make Bahrain has 2 titles for Gulf Cup championsip however i am sure this achievement will boosted Bahrain confidence when they fight against Japan and Indonesia for 3rd round world cup qualification on March later
Congratulations to Bahrain winning the title. Oman wasted it although they were leading most of the game. There was a lot of waste of time as usual, especially in the last minutes of the match.
I have expected in my previous post that Bahrain is favourite and the support of Oman wasn't enough for them to win. I assume if Saudi Arabia reached out to the finals, it could easily take it home.

I saw parts of the match between Bahrain and Kuwait honestly and I missed the one between Saudi Arabia and Oman. I was surprised to see Saudi Arabia, maybe the most favourite team to win the title losing against Oman, which was playing with only 10 players for most of the game, which makes things worst!
One of Oman's players was red carded in the first half of the game, so Oman had to play with 10 players. So I thought Saudi Arabia would seize the opportunity but in the end Saudi Arabia lost. Oman went ahead with 2 goals in 74 and 85 minutes. Saudi Arabia scored 1 goal in 87 minutes. But in the end, Saudi Arabia lost and was eliminated from the tournament.Today will be the final match of Arabian Gulf Cup, the match will be between Oman vs Bahrain.

There is an international cup that is running right now and I wasn't aware about, i don't know if anyone here is following it, it is the 26th version of Arabian Gulf Cup.
There is two groups containing 4 teams each with Oman leading the first one and Saudi Arabia leading the second group.
Ironically in this cup, Iraq and Qatar which used to be good teams, are sitting in the last place and were eliminated.
The knockout phase will be held between Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain. Saudi Arabia looks the most favourite in my opinion.
I did not follow the Arabian Gulf Cup group stage matches, today I suddenly got a notification that the match between Saudi Arabia and Oman has started. However, the semi-final match of Arabian Gulf Cup between Oman vs Saudi Arabia has started. The first half of the game is over and neither team has scored a goal so far. Oman's player Al Mandhar Rabia Said Al Alawi was given a red card in the 34th minute of the game. So Oman is now playing with ten players, so it will be an advantage for Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is ahead in Possession and Passes, I think Saudi Arabia can win today. Now let's see which team can win in the end.There is two groups containing 4 teams each with Oman leading the first one and Saudi Arabia leading the second group.

Bahrain too was playing with 10 players most of the second half, yet they managed to score and keep their sheet clean against Kuwait which was hosting the competition by the way.
Now in less than 48 hours, Bahrain will face Oman. Bahrain looks more favourite and maybe the advantage that the other team has is the support of the remaining nations that were excluded by Bahrain, mainly Kuwait supporters.

In fact, VAR is a good idea but the way FIFA is using it is very ridiculous and a pure waste of time and game killing. There is talks to change it and use it like twice per matches only for every team upon coach's request but there is nothing official yet.
Back to the games, Colombia lost to Uruguay which advanced to the second spot behind Argentina by three points and in front of Brazil by two points only.
There is many rounds left and things seem to change with every couple of rounds.

I can't say less about the VAR, for me it is something that lends itself to corruption, I don't agree that it is considered offside if the person has not completely overcome the defender, but if the body is forward or if a foul or something like that it should not be considered because it does not make much sense, that really puts a very ugly brake on football, I think they don't know how to take good advantage of technology.
The match between Uruguay and Colombia was very close, the end was painful, because everything happened in the last few minutes where extra time was the main thing.
Tomorrow the world cup qualifier match will be between Peru vs Argentina. The match will start at 6 am Bangladesh time. Argentina is at the top number one in the points table and on the other hand Peru's performance is not good they are at number 9 in the points table. We saw that Argentina lost against Paraguay in the last match, Argentina has not been performing well for the last four matches. If we look at the head to head record of these two teams then out of the last 5 matches between these two teams, Argentina have won 4 matches and drawn 1 match. Besides, the match will be in Argentina's home ground, so Argentina will have more advantage. Hope Argentina turn around, I think Argentina can win easily.
We have last day of games in different regions for the World Cup qualifiers before long vacations as now we will be back after 4 months for next round of games which could be decisive before World cup qualifiers next rounds started, but things were interested in this round as well with we have few surprises as well.We have hard fought win for the Argentina which allow them to stay at the top but Brazil not able to win as they ended on draw against Uruguay which give them setback even their spot is also settled for next world cup, but they need to work on their attack for having better results Chile secure their second win in these qualifiers and Peru not allow Paraguay to jump above Brazil as they have draw in this game.
What's actually this short guy doing? 
Just because he can bribed the referee when he was in Barcelona and bribed Ballon d'Or few times, it doesn't mean he can bribed the referee in international match. Come on, this is just a qualification, even you lose many match, as long as finish at top 6 rank, you're safe.
This guy should learn how Ronaldo handle criticism and prove everyone wrong.

Rigged the Ballon d'Or, rigged the World Cup, and bribed the referees. Man, all of this is getting boring now; just embrace greatness and be grateful you witnessed it.
Ronaldo has done worse than this; he was suspended for five games for shoving a referee, so you forget that so quickly? If we go down this road, Messi hasn't done anything remotely comparable to Ronaldo's approach to officials.
No player should react like that in front of a referee whether he was Ronaldo or Messi.. Ballon d'Or is a prize that doesn't look to be fair for many players, just like Oscars for actors.
Anyway, Messi and Ronaldo are established players with a lot of qualities and no one could deny this. Respecting others will force others to respect you and vice versa.

The VAR has made the game more fair. If we want these players to play on the utmost edge, then you can't go without technology. If we want tennis players to hit the ball on the line as often as possible, we need the Hawkeye. Without the Hawkeye players would take less risk and the game would be less exciting. I think the VAR is a good thing as it solved 99.99% offside questions and it does solve many of the penalty questions. The only thing that I am not sure about whether it has improved or not, is the handball thing. Out of a sudden the VAR chimes in and says there was a handball even when nobody else could see it. That's tough and maybe too harsh and too destructive for the game, but you have to draw the line somewhere. As long as the rules are the same for everyone, I think it is better to have technology in place. But even with technology there will be scenarios where there is still a final subjective judgment needed by the referee.
No doubt that the game has become more fair if we look at the decisions making being more precise but I think a large number of gamblers would still argue on the importance of VAR in the game of soccer because sometimes the decisions that the VAR gives are still inconclusive as VAR is still all humans making decisions base on what the camera or videos play out for them which to some extent some clips can still be tricky.
I have seen countless times when goals are ought to be ruled out which from my own thought are possible clear goals but due to VAR it was disallowed although some of the decisions do favour me but when it goes against you it can be really painful.😁
It is mostly not really a VAR thing that you are describing here, but an issue with existing rules and the VAR allows the referees to review back and forth and then enforce those rules 99% of the time on equal grounds. Ad I said especially handball rules that lead to penalties are a pain the ass for the games often times. I am still a fan of the VAR though as I think the more we fans want the players to take it to the max, the more we need technology that can tell us whether an action crossed the line or not. There can be moments when everyone freaks out because things can still go wrong, but that is then escalating exponentially exactly because technology is involved and instead of just accepting that technology can't reduce the error rate to zero, people instead say that the technology is to blame in the first place and it should be removed. But then everyone here should accept that World Cups can be decided by the "hand of god"... I don't want such goals to be decisive in a World Cup, that is what the technology is there for.
In the last few days in the International soccer that is being played both in South America and in Europe what is going on is not at all good for the bettors, Argentina and Brazil both not winning their games in the last couple of days says a lot about betting and that we should refrain from going and betting in big teams while the same in Europe with France not being able to beat Israel at home despite being a much better quality team in comparison to Israel. I don't know how many people have lost money or how many of them have lost huge amounts of money yet I am sure that the more I watch sports the more I believe it to be rigged and even the so called VAR is not adding any value to any game or to make justice happen in the field, this shows also a dark side of the world which is corruption and it lives fully incorporated in UEFA/FIFA/CONMEBOL and whatever other entity there maybe governing soccer.

Use of VAR were supposed to be had positive impact on soccer, but sadly things are not going as we have too many controversies and problems in last few months and players and coaches are still crying which is surely having more headache for all even we have technology, but we fail to game on fair level which is surely not good thing happening right now in soccer FIFA and regional associations needs to sit and talk about this before it's having backlash, and we have more problems which are never been good for the game.Back to the games, Colombia lost to Uruguay which advanced to the second spot behind Argentina by three points and in front of Brazil by two points only.

In CONMEBOL, we have 11 rounds ended and 7 remaining, so things can take too many changes, and we can expect few surprising results as well which will bring league table shaped could be change so right now we can't talk about teams, but one thing is sure we will be having Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Columbia at the top four without any serious challenge.

Also, i'm feeling bad how Messi was blaming the referee as a coward. He should have a better attitude instead of blaming the referee, though, the ref was horrendous.
