I feel its not that Iran have a bad defense. They were constantly pushing for the goal against India as a result we got chances to score by counter attacks. Vietnam might find it difficult to play against Iran. Iran have better chances to win this match. India's defense along with goalkeeping is good that we have not conceded so far. But our defensive players do make silly mistakes sometimes. We have improved in passing the ball so that we are able to create chances in the final third. This will cause pressure to the Indonesian defense in the next game. If we can convert our chances we have a good chance against Indonesia. We should also be careful because we should not lose our crucial players for the quarter final game given that we have high chances for qualification.
Even a second before kick-off we would all have prayed for a draw. Rather we got a dominant play, albeit a draw. Great result. Iran is a regular world cupper and one of the top Asian teams. This team is very competitive. If even this team is berated by anyone, I suspect their intentions.
Why will Australia qualify. It will be Iraq instead.
We did miss chances but we have a very strong defence. Lets be happy that after almost decades an Indian team is able to draw Iran who are arguably the strongest footballing nation in Asia.
Judging by the highlights..both teams had fair chances to win....Draw seems fair result. Now we wait for 27th! I really hope we go through. This batch has been very good.
I have read it somewhere(In the newspaper or somewhere, I can't remember.
It has happened after 33 years that any Indian team(all age groups) has managed to draw against their Iranian Counterparts.
So, it's an amazing achievement and result by our boys. More than the result what was heartening was that it was an even game unlike any of our previous teams including the previous u17 batch.
Our Team has got special Talent and we should be supporting the boys.
Hope for the best because I feel that they create History.
