Iran go on top, but with some help from Kuwait

On Saturday something close to miracle happened for all the Iran fans. Going into the fourth round of the Asia World Cup Qualifying Group 5 Team Melli was in third place with three points trailing UAE and Syria that had five points each.

Well, it all changed in one round; TM defeated UAE, and the bottom dwellers Kuwait defeated Syria on Sunday. So now Iran is sitting pretty on top of the group with UAE and Syria trailing still with five points each, but now they are looking back nervously to find Kuwait breathing down their necks with four points.

Oh, I love football’s unpredictability J
