Syria beating iran

[.k.k.]

Currently winning 1-0 , as it stands they qualify for the world cup.

 

[BarrheadRFC]

Crazy.

 

[Sam_Seaborn]

Quite astounding, all things considered.

 

[Lutonbear85]

You can't be Syrias?

 

[Stuhercules]

oooft I was going to put Iran on my coupon and decided against it at the last min.

 

[.k.k.]

Uzbekistan 0-0 south korea in the other game that matters

 

[Laiho]

Stick on to get drawn in Russia's group

 

[ekbear]

That would be some story. Where are they playing their home games? Surely not in Syria.

 

[Sonny]

1-1

 

[Arminius]

1-1

What does that do to their chances?

Been playing im Oman i believe

 

[Morelos20]

My favourite international derby the war monger classic.

 

[.k.k.]

What does that do to their chances?

Currently be south korea that qualifies .

But an Uzbekistan win woud mean they are going to the world cup

 

[ekbear]

Fair play to them for carrying on as they've probably got no domestic league.

 

[Peter Venkman]

Would be mental if Syria can reach the World Cup and we can't

 

[Arminius]

Currently be south korea that qualifies .

But an Uzbekistan win woud mean they are going to the world cup

Right, that's it. Closing the office 5 mins early so I can get straight up the road for this nailbiter

 

[Peter Lee Conlin]

Do they play their home games in Raqqa? How does that even work?

 

[Torque_87]

Some weird and wonderful stuff happens in this International football.

 

[Eric_Cartman]

For a second there I thought that Hezbollah had went tonto and went for The Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

The sooner the lounge is up and running the better.

 

[Sonny]

What does that do to their chances?

As it stands, 2 pts behind South Korea and qualification. They really need to win I think.

 

[Lutonbear85]

Would be quite a Raqqat if they qualify!

 

[.k.k.]

Their national stadium was in Aleppo. If it's still standing

 

[mdingwall]

Fantastic result - any links to footage of the goals.

Uzbekistan 0-0 south korea in the other game that matters

South Korea fucked my coupon!

Watched the last 10 minutes and they missed two sitters within about 3 seconds of each other. The second was was awful though! Harder to miss than it was to score.

 

[jaws73]

Tremendous result for Syria against run-away group leaders Iran taking them into the play-offs.

If Saudis fail to beat Japan tonight it will be Saudi Arabia in the play-offs, if they beat Japan it will be Australia facing Syria.

HT: Saudi Arabia 0 Japan0

 

[jaws73]

Fantastic result - any links to footage of the goals.

Great celebrations at the late equaliser.

 

[Lutonbear85]

Great scenes!

 

[Allan McRitchie]

I did

 

[Killer Bob]

Quite a good away support

 

[mdingwall]

Great celebrations at the late equaliser.

What a fantastic goal for the equaliser!

 

[Shug176]

Play Australia in a play off I think

 

[AmsterdamBear]

Fair play to them, a remarkable achievement. However cannot help but think they won't make it through a playoff, however stranger things have happened.

 

[tartan_penguin]

Syria play AU in playoff. Then assuming AU win they meet Honduras, Panama or the USA.

 

[Captain_Buns]

That would be some story. Where are they playing their home games? Surely not in Syria.

Parts of the country haven't been compromised by the war yet. We still get scheduled flights by Syria Air flying in & out all the time as well.

I was surprised
