Confused Clarity Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 We start the second round of matches with Cymru vs Iran. Cymru froze in their first half against USA before rallying in the second half to get a draw. Iran got dismantled by England before showing glimpses of the attacking threat they can pose. Both teams need a result today. Cymru: Just one change for the team with Kieffer Moore starting after his strong performance in the second half. Iran: Despite my best efforts, No fancy graphic sadly, but I make it 5 changes for Iran? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confused Clarity Posted November 25, 2022 Author Share Posted November 25, 2022 On a personal note. I've got the day off work today. Was no chance I was allowing any kind of distractions for this game. Really really need a Wales win, but I'm very aware of what Iran will want to do after their game against England. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_jagster Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I think this could be the cagey game I was expecting England to be. Would be good for Wales if they can score a set piece early on so Iran have to try something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swansongs Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Disappointed but not surprised by the lineup. Would have liked to see Johnson start at least. We're going to see some heavy legs in game 3 if Page is afraid to rotate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFuller Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Iran won't be as poor as they were in the last game, but losing Beiranvand so early on was a huge blow to their defence. If Wales can get an early goal, I can see them winning quite comfortably. But I don't think it'll be as simple. I'm going for another close and cagey game that opens up in the second half. Wales to win 2-1 - but Gareth Bale will not score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1981 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Iran to revert to type. Compact with everyone behind the ball and Wales won’t have the quality to pull them around like England did. Probably 1-0 but I’m not sure which way. A draw probably suits Iran better, even though they would only have one point from two games and Wales would have two. Then they just back themselves to go and beat USA by a couple of goals on MD3 and assume Wales don’t beat England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confused Clarity Posted November 25, 2022 Author Share Posted November 25, 2022 The Anthem track they've picked for "Hen wlad fy nhadau" really is terrible.
