Next match is on Sunday (in about 37 hours from now) in Palestine.

You know the referees for both matches are arab? they are from Oman.
Maybe they should have picked some referees from a different country...


Here is a summary of the last match,

A spirited display by Afghanistan who only a couple of days back arrived in the state of Tajikistan. Unfortunate problems with NOC, temporary financial crisis, injuries, cancelled friendlies, and a managerial resignation did not deter Afghanistan to put on a fine display. Although a 2-0 win for Palestine and a tough task for Afghanistan to go to Palestine to win, but Afghanistan in the past have always been a very unpredictable side
Despite the encounter being held on neutral territory a sizable crowd- estimated at 5,000- showed up to cheer Afghanistan on. Team-e-Melli were rocked by news that Oldenburg goalkeeper Mansur Faqiyar and Eintracht Frankfurt II product Abassin Alikhil would not recover in time to participate. These two were always going to be heavily leaned on to help grind out a result. Despite key absences, the newly reinstated Yosuf Kargar put out an attacking line-up. For the first quarter of an hour it seemed to pay off as the Afghans, more acclimated to local conditions (37 C) displayed plenty of skill.
The opening goal came 28 minutes in after Afghanistan's first positive attacking spell. Atef Abu Bilal, whom Bezaz chose over Ashraf Nu'man, sent in a cross from the left which Murad 'Dado' Alyan headed in brilliantly for his fifth international goal in four games.
Afghanistan did not let their heads drop, pressuring the makeshift Palestinian backline in hopes of forcing an error. The defence was for the most part, excellent, today but did have to scramble away a few balls for corners. Afghanistan's best chance of the first half came in the dying seconds with direct free kick forcing the Palestinian goalkeeper Mohammed Shbair into action.
The second half would see Afghanistan go for broke, they wanted to get at least a draw to take with them to Al-Ram. Shbair was forced to show Bezaz that he had made the right decision in picking him over Abdullah Saidawi, who started all three Challenge Cup qualifiers and had had a better domestic season. Belal Arezou, the Asker FC (Norway) player nearly equalized with a header in the 50th minute only for Shbair to foil his chance.
Palestine was awarded a penalty in the 75th minute after Khader Yousef was fouled in the box. Murad Alyan was given the responsibility of converting the chance but placed it far too casually to the Yousufzai's right. The no 2 goalkeeper stepped up after the injury of Mansur Fariqar, and did a marvellous job today. Afghanistan, buoyed by its supporters, tried to mount a comeback Kargar took off Qazizadah and threw on a third outright forward German import Mustafa Hadid.
His persistence paid off in the 85th minute firing a belter to the right of the helpless Yousufzai.
Yousef Kargar has formed a promising young team, Thirteen of the twenty-one players included in the squad are under the age of 23. The way Kargar has formed the team, and under the leadership of our strong midfielder Salim Kohistani, the team is bonding well,and potentially can be a great force in the future. This is no longer a team that is going to get blown out by its Central or South Asian neighbours. Kargar has done a good job of forming a well balanced team, and we wish them the best of luck in the return leg in Palestine.

^Football news not cricket news

Last night Tamadon TV of Afghanistan finally succeed to broadcast the video of the
first leg match between Afghanistan and Palestine. I was just shocked to see Afghans
not scoring. Palestine scored twice, but they had only 5 chances. However,
Afghanistan created something between 12 to 15 chances of goal and none of them
were converted into goal. Bilal Arzou, Seddiq Walizada, Hashmatullah Barakzai,
Mustafa Hadid, Islam Amiri and Salim Kohistani had all different chances of scoring.

Overall, Afghanistan was the better side, they had a better tactic and had a better
share of the ball possession. Despite being shorter and physically not stronger than
Palestinians, Afghan players were using their techniques and were not a minnow in the
match at all.

Although we were unlucky on the first leg, today our players should show their talentin
Ramallah, although it is hard to play in front of thousands of vocal fans of the host
team.

Anyway, I see the future of this team very bright. They can easily pass some of their
rivals in South Asian Football Federation bi-annual tournament later in the year.

Next match is in just over 5 hours.

Tamadon TV showed the last match late when they were meant to show it live.
I think they will show this one too. Check it out if you can find anymore info..

You can watch tv there live at:
Watch Tamadon TV Live TV from Afghanistan.

It's a farsi channel and the signal quality isn't that good for me, maybe it might be better for anyone else who tries.

[graveyardofempires]

Afghanistan vs Palestine in a couple of minutes.

@ haris
can i watch the games on that channel?

[Haris]

Ahhh! crap!

I slept through it lol.

Graveyard, you could have watched it here: تلفزيون فلسطين Palestine Tv

but I think its too late now.



This time it was a draw, score was 1-1.
So the overall score was 3-1 to Palestine meaning Afghanistan won't be progressing in the World Cup. It will be Palestine who will be playing Thailand not us.

[Bengal_Tiger]

Have to admit it's a good goal but the keeper should easily have saved that, he wasn't expecting it so he wasn't in the right position but you can see he is angry with himself after.

They did well to get a goal back after that especially in a packed away stadium and the pressure of having to come back from a 2-0 loss in the first match.

Unlucky but I hope Falestin does become succseful in this world cup.



We can only look to the future and after reading some analysis from Football Afghanistan we can be optimistic. The team is still young and needs time to mould together and work well as a team at an international standard. I hope they learn from this, ready to destroy anyone next time



btw did you manage to get the Afghan goal too?


Edit: Don't worry I just saw the Afghan goal. Thanks for uploading.

[t bag]
