Lebanon still has a chance to qualify to the 2014 World Cup as Uzbekistan defeated Iran surprisingly 1-0 in Tehran. I have to say the game was poor from both sides but Qatar were the better side towards the end and scored a beautiful goal from a 30m shot.
Here are the standings from the group Lebanon is in. [Group A]
I think the Goal Keeper could have done better, he looked shocked that ball went in the net.
Lack of experience on the goal keeper’s end is key. He was not expecting a shot, he figured the common attach technique when there is only one-two defender involved would be followed (advancing near penalty box) the shot was a surprise but only an experienced goal keeper would expect a shot and be prompted to jump.
How many from the group go through?
