South Korea go through not Syria. This was very expected as South Korea has lot of experience and as expected Uzbekistan flopped. It will take lots and lots of efforts for other Asian nations to steal the 4 automatic berths from Australia, Iran, Japan and South Korea.
heartbreak for Uzbekistan , Syria goes through will play off and winner of that match will play inter-confederation_play-offs with 4th placed CONCACAF team(currently Honduras) and winner of this match goes to WC
Asia should have 6 automatic berths. Europe shouldn't get more than 10, the equations are ridiculously biased against predominantly black countries. Curse the assholes who let the Oz cunts into AFC.
@EastBengalPride Quality also matters. Barring South Korea in 2002, Asia has done nothing. Hardly 1 Asian country pass Group stage. Europe has quality - thats why 16 slots. Even then, many good European countries are left behind which could have qualified on merit from Asia.
@EastBengalPride no I dont agree with that, its not like some confederations have easy and others have tough
look at 2nd placed teams in UEFA qualification who play play off and check out teams who might miss this spot there are reasonably big names involved iceland , turkey,slovenia , scotland,wales , netherlands,denmark
If i am not wrong almost all of the confederations play nearly equal number of games.format is set like that
agree with Australia thing somewhat
having said this IMO if teams cant sustain pressure games in qualifying then how they will go through group stages at WC , thats the idea
Omar Al Somah who scored the last min equalizer is the top scorer of Saudi league for the last 3 seasons.. Yet being anti-Assad he was kicked out of the team. This was only the 6th match for the 27 yr old in national colors

Sometimes managers really matter a lot
