Did you guys watched MEX-ANG game? What a superb performance from ANG. They were one man down and still defended the attcaks form the world’s most favorite team. In my heart they are already champs. Iranian team should take notice of MEX-ANG game.

before you guys go bad-mouthing iran and blaming their plays and saying that mexico is the better team, why don’t you read that article?

why don’t you actually LEARN some iranian history?

the government doesnt WANT their team to win because if they win, then the people can have a reason to celebrate in the streets –> protests
then they can’t arrest them b/c they use the excuse of “celebration”

if you HONESTLY think that mexico was going to win, than i suggest you rewatch the game. i think someone beatifully phrased it as “iran played first and second half like night and day.”

its obvious that a different team came out, watch the players and the coaches crestfallen face during 2nd half

no one would ever play the second half on defense only, someone else phrased it as “if its not broke, don’t fix it”

trust me, something HAPPNED in that lockerroom during the halftime.

We would have won the game if we played the second half the way we did the first one.

Blah, blah, blah.

Do you people realize that Mexico’s substitutions at halftime were intendend to stop allowing Iran to play like they did in the first hald? The problem is that your coach’s responses to our subs never worked. If you ask any knowledgeable fan, that’s a big issue if you want to win in such a short tournament.

In short, you were out-smarted.

Jordan made some comments that i think ring true. Something happened during half time. I was watching iranian TV in australia and a few fans called the show from germany. they were at the game and they said that apparently iran bought over 10,000 tickets and dispensed it to mexicans. also apparently msg came in during half time that they not win the game. ali diea enforced the msg to his players and apparently it caused a lot of conflict between them. It answers alot of question of WHY the hell they played like that during the second half.

Okay here it is plain and simple! Two teams! there has to be a draw or a Winner! One lost One won. Mexico won and Iran didn’t. It’s only obious Mexico wanted it more than Iran. Iran is a good team who made mistakes and Mexico took advantage.
Next time Iran should try not to make more mistakes. NO hard feelings. Mexico respects Iran and their fans should be proud for their participation.

We will lose to Portugal because we are going to be playing a defensive game.
