Lebanon defeats Kuwait 1-0


[YouTube]

A great result and a very nice goal for our National Football team!

This win places Lebanon in second place, three points behind South Korea and boosts its chances for qualifying to the World Cup. I am glad the game ended without any fights or army shooting in the air like what happened the last time we met the Kuwaiti team.

    I say you wait till they don’t make it and say “i’m glad i didn’t root for them!”

    Impressive goal.
    Funny how not a year ago, the team was a joke.

    Seems like they got things together now. :D

    It’s unlucky they’re playing South Korea in the next game (a good result against game would be more attainable in the final game where they don’t want to guarantee their first place anymore).

    TL;DR: if our national team qualifies this round, they play another round in a group of 5 teams, the first 2 automatically qualify to the world cup, while the 3rd team plays a playoff game with another team and then qualifies…
    *fingers crossed*
