only Bhutan/Cambodia embarressed themselves.

Really good idea by AFC to mix WC/Asian Cup qualifiers, now even the smaller teams have a lot more motivation to do well.

Ffs lost to Kyrgyztan

Tbh none of the talented kids like me take football as a career choice in my country so doesnt matter.

Are you from Bangladesh?

Unbelievable.

The ref at Maldives-Qatar game gives 8 mins added time, then plays extra until Qatar scored in 100th minute !!

now if that's not corruption, tell me what is. Absolutely baffling.

Poor Maldives...Qatar just throwing oil money at refs, the most disgusting country on earth.

Qatar is everything that's wrong with this world. The symbol of everything bad and awful. I hope nothing good ever happens to that awful awful, terrible nation.

North Korea >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Qatar.

India 1 -2 Oman,

It was a good game. Hope to do better in the upcoming one ...
