Japan and Iran the two teams we feared the most are out.

Surely having the tournament at home, we are the favourites to win this? Yes we lost to Korea but if we were to make the final we will be the favourite against Korea / Iraq.

Imagine if we were to win the tournament and Iraq made the final :lol:

Wins against Kuwait, Oman, China, UAE, Iraq to win it :o :lol:

I don't see UAE being much of a threat, some of the chances japan missed were just horrific, it was essentially a match played in one side of the field. We should win this tournament now, I'd still be nervous if we weren't playing on home soil but the way yesterday's events unfolded we are in the box seat, japan gone and our other biggest rival Iran who also have the physical aspect that matches us gone as well.
