AFC Asian Cup 2007: Iraq V Saudi Arabia Post-Match Ceremony

*weren't

the czech republic wasn't half bad, and they didn't make the world cup until the bulk of their squad was old as hell.

Speak for yourself amigo. Some Americans eat, sleep and breath soccer. We get it.

The most funny presentation ever! The official asked those iraqi players to cool down n dont jump! Then, those bodyguards joined in the celebration; in fact they tried to protect their indo president etc who should hv walked away aft awarded th e cup to the iraqi captain!

Iraq will qualify for the next World cup, This team has got bags of talent

I hope I will see Iraq at the 2010 world cup

Long live soccer in Iraq........may their people hold their heads up high.........

these guys are role models...so many difficulties they have and yet that couldn't hold them from winning the cup...i heard that there were safety concerns for the iraqi players as well, they didn't know how the iraqi people would react specially the insurgents...can u imagine that? i mean for the iraqi players literally it was some sort of life-death match....CONGRATULATIONS IRAQI PEOPLE!!

lol can you learn how to speak first?? lol lol im sorry its just that u sound like a boater! i think u are one ..lol

مبروک یا العراق بکینا کالاکرادوالعراقیین فی الفرح

هارد لك يالسعودية وهاردلك يامالك معاذ وتيسير الجاسم وياسر المسيليم وكل اللاعبين ومبروك للعراق ومبروك لإبن همام والحكم الأسترالي الله لايبارك فيه ..

I'm not suprise. i alway know that soccer can reunite anyone from any where. So what if you are Sunni, Turk or Shiite, on the soccer pitch you are one team. Too ashame we Americans cannot be like the rest of the world and live under the influence of soccer.

Arigato- ;)

they deserve it!! im iraqi

Its Canadian !

Congrats Iraq!!..Respect from ur Indonesian brother, and be careful.. our Garuda wings are about to fly over your team roars in the next times we meet..Viva Indonesia!

سعودي راح يشتري عصير برتقال ابو العصاير انطاه العصير بكيس رد السعودي لو سمحت اريد العصير بكاس كله اسمحلي يا اخوي الكاس عراقي.

lmaooooo g7boo6 its alright buddy we believe ur not from saudi or USA but IM SURE UR FROM KOREA LMAOO...its ok u thinkk that...i thought saudi had a penalty as well, however, there was a post match analysis of the calls the ref missed...nd when the reviewd the part where jasim almost tackles the saudi guy...his knee was bent...so he didnt really cause him to fall...no penalty...also Iraq deserved a penalty after the saudi golie tripped the Iraqi player with his leg.

sour saudi

Thanks Aaia for giving us, the Socceroos, some lessons during our first maiden participation in the Asian Cup.

Actually Asian soccer is not as sucked as what I thought. You guys rock, really. We were too confident to beat you guys easily, but now we realize that Asian Soccer is much better than the Oceania.

Thanks Asia for accepting Australia being part of you.

Well done Iraq!, Among the wreckage of their faild country, I think Iraqis deseve celebration. If Viera can unite Iraqi soccer team, why can't their government unite their country?

I am amazed at the kindness of Jakarta supporters who support the fairytale team of Iraq. I think we should give credit to Indonesians who have shown maximum enthusiasm throughout the tournament and given the Iraqis hope and victory.

Congratulation to Iraq!!! They are the best team in this tournament...
They only conceded 2 goals when they play draw 1-1 against Thailand (penalty), and a victory 3-1 against Australia.
I must admitted that Iraq's team has got a superb defenders.

Well ,First of all I am not a Saudi or An American !i watched the match .Iraqis played ruff !!They dont know how to play soccer ,They just attacked the Saudi team with no skills !And the referee didnt give the saudis 2 absolut penaltys but the spirit of the Iraqi team was amazing and in the end we all are happy for iraq even the Saudis who i know are happy for Iraq lol they says to me (Iraq when the Asian Cup but no others cos both of us are arabs )

The iraqis doesnt know how to play soccer ,They depends allmost on there huge bodys to attack the saudis !! the referee is such a cheater !I watched the whole match and Iraqis were sux as hell .
