its gona be pretty hard qualifying. Noor sabri dropped from the team, and if australia dont loose or tie next game than its over. our coach isnt too great, i hope viera stayed with Iraq.

[jarule05]

tell me why its over if australia wins all their matches... let them be 1st... the 1st and the 2nd are going to the 4th stage.

Don't give up hope so fast... come on people.. have some faith in Mesopotamia Lions!

[lifeovdeath]

1st and 2nd? i though only one qualifies... o yea and i forgot that there is home and away matchs, so we still got a chance

[Mo3Gng]

first...noor sabri didnt drop, he was going to

second..if australia wins, it doesnt mean its over for the iraqiz

third...hav respect for all da iraqi players, dont say its hard, nothing is hard , its just dat we are pressured to musch because we lost againgst qatar

iraq is a tough team, and even if they did loose, they will give it their best to get to s.a

iraq 4 eva

[lifeovdeath]

yes i typed that comment before he decided to stay with the team. hopefully Iraq win, but I think we need a better coach.

[haidar1144]

[lifeovdeath]

yea well. my comment is pretty old....

[jarule05]

[Naruto19892006]

Wow, better English than what we heard before! Good job Nashat, insha'allah you'll get into Man City or maybe something even better. But first you need to help Iraq get to South Africa 2010!
