Urawa Red made it to the final... Al-Wahda - Sepahan [R]

[Ali(ISP)]

a half chance for karimi, but they get the ball off him too easly.

so far so good, touch wood.

0-0

 

[Ali(ISP)]

sepahan are doing a good job containing al wahda. they have been limited to a couple of chances only.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

free kick for al wahda 40 yards outside the area, mohammadi punches.

overhead kicks by the arabs, and it goes wide.

28, 0-0

thanks for the updates, keep them coming.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

WTF!

a perfectly fine tackle is given as a foul for the arabs! this is dangerous. just outside the area!

 

[pansari]

Sepahan seems content on defending....their only attacks seem to be on counterattacks. I dont know how safe of a game plan this is.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

this ismail matar is a descent player. he hits the free kick, and mohammadi saves well.

i still cant beleive that was given as a foul!!

31, 0-0

Sepahan is very comfortable with this strategy. They are a good defensive team with nice counters, it is their style. I predict a 1-0 win for Sepahan in this game.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

we have a corner for al wahda now but sepahan defends well. they have been defending well tonight.

0-0

 

[Ali(ISP)]

WHAT A CHANCE FOR SEPAHAN!!!!!

ONE ON ONE WITH KEEPER, GOES WIDE

OMG speak of the devil......Sepahan almost scored on the counter...lol

 

[Khorus]

Are Aghili and Bengar playing? Without Aghili Sepahan is a little soft in the middle.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

great run and pass by karimi to haj safi, who is through on goal, but what a poor finish.

sepahan should be 1-0 up.

 

[Ali(ISP)]

aghili is playing.

 

[azaad2004]

How is Navidikia? Sepahan shouldnt sit back and defend. if We score the first one, we will b through!

 

[Ali(ISP)]

bengar is also playing

 

[pansari]

IS it just me or does the ref seem bias towards Al Wahda ?

 

[Ali(ISP)]

to be honest, u cant tell. coz sepahan has only had maybe 3-4 attacks in 35 min. so u cant really comment much on his (or any other players) game. they are just defending in numbers in their own half, and not allowing any space to al wahda, and so far its worked.

he IS biased! lol

yellow for one of their players for foul on moharram

bengar is also playing

aghili is playing.

Excellent! We are pretty much guaranteed to go through as with those 2 in defense, Sepahan very rarely gives away more than 1 goal. Seyyed Salehi and Karimi are both good on counters, and with the genius of Navidkia in the middle putting through passes to get the forwards through the defense, we are good to go. I Know Karimi is playing, and pretty sure Navidkia is playing, but don't know about Seyyed Salehi. Can someone confirm? Thanks.
