just wanted to acknowledge that this could happen. iraq are likely to thump palestine. they have conceded 4 goals in both games.

jordan is playing for a finals birth. they have everything to lose. if they beat japan by 2 goals they go ahead of them.

this is a real possibility. it means that we will have the best run to the final possible.

Let's say Jordan sneaks a 1-0 win over Japan, and Iraq beats Palestine 3-0. You get a full table of:

Team |   GF |   GA |   GD |   Pts
Jordan |   6 |   2 |   +4 |   6
Japan |   5   1 |   +4 |   6
Iraq |   3 |   1 |   +3 |   6
Palestine |   1 |   12 |   −11 |   0


im pretty sure that that outcome means jordan and japan go through. it is not a tiebreaker if they have a different goal difference.
