Compare that strike to the shit that Australia offered up front.........then coach and players have the gall to blame the lack of goals on luck!

That goal sucked all of it out of this game now. Blame on the system and formation. Should never have come to this. Now we're the 5th best Asian team playing the 6th best. How stupid is that.

Hate these Saudis. Will probably get thrashed in the WC. But hey, at least they're in it

Nope.

I unerstand Islam has spread to West Africa like Peanut Butter and the reasons can be debated forever but I just find it strange that perhaps the most racist nation on Earth has no issue when it comes to winning a football game.
I have worked and lived and traveled around Saudi Arabia for 4 years, great people. The misconceptions we westerners have about the people and about the country are incredibly sad and frustrating to me.

Where has Syria been playing their games? Tehran, Iran? Or neutral at UAE?

Edit: in Malaysia, their last home game was anyway

From a male perspective.. fine. Must've been lucky to get work and money.
But it's a cruel social divide between the rich and poor, plus the sharia law.
Saudi Arabia have been the top country in terms of breach of human rights. Named among Syria.
