Mondiali di calcio, prima giornata: i risultati dei gironi A e B
Tumblr media
Mondiali di calcio, prima giornata: i risultati dei gironi A e B. Qatar-Ecuador 0-2: il mondiale si apre con la squadra ospitante che ospita l’Ecuador all’Al Bayt Stadium. I sudamericani passano in vantaggio al sedicesimo minuto con Valencia che trasforma un rigore di piatto destro spiazzando il potere qatariota. Al trentunesimo minuto l’Ecuador raddoppia con ancora Valencia che si stacca dalla marcatura in area di rigore e sul cross di Preciado stacca e di testa insacca alle spalle di Al Sheeb. Senegal-Olanda 0-2: all’Al Thumama Stadium l’Olanda di Van Gaal batte il Senegal orfana di Mané. Gli “orange” aprono le marcature all’ottantaquattresimo minuto con il gol di Gakpo che di testa batte Mendy sul cross dalla trequarti di De Jong. Gli olandesi chiudono la partita al novantanovesimo con Klaassen che si avventa sulla ribattuta di Mendy dopo il tiro di Depay e segna il raddoppio. Inghilterra-Iran 6-2: al Khalifa International Stadium l’Inghilterra di Southgate batte l’Iran. Ad aprire le marcature è Jude Bellingham al trentacinquesimo minuto che con un colpo di testa sul cross di Shaw porta in vantaggio i suoi. Al quarantatreesimo Bukayo Saka raddoppia: sul corner Maguire fa da torre servendo Saka che con un gran sinistro buca Hosseini. Al quarantaseiesimo minuto gli inglesi segnano il gol del 3-0 con Sterling che con una zampata sul cross di Kane realizza il tris. Al sessantaduesimo Saka fa doppietta dopo aver ricevuto palla da Sterling, essersi accentrato e lasciato partire un sinistro letale che finisce infondo alla rete. Tre minuti più tardi l’Iran accorcia le distanze con Taremi che lanciato da Ali Gholizadeh supera Pickford con un potente destro. Al settantunesimo Rashford cala la manita per gli inglesi: il neoentrato viene servito da Kane, finta il tiro con il destro e poi calcia di mancino insaccando. All’ottantanovesimo arriva anche la firma di Jack Grealish che, sul tocco di Wilson a tu per tu con il portiere, deve solo spingere il pallone in rete. L’Iran segna il gol del definitivo 6-2 al tredicesimo minuto di recupero con Taremi che dal dischetto spiazza Pickford per la doppietta personale. Stati Uniti-Galles 1-1: all’Ahmad bin Ali Stadium va in scena l’ultima partita del girone B. Gli Stati Uniti allenati da Gregg Berhalter passano in vantaggio al trentaseiesimo con Tim Weah, figlio del grande George Weah, che sul bel passaggio filtrante di Pulisic è bravissimo a battere Hennessey con l’esterno destro. All’ottantaduesimo il Galles risponde con la sua stella più brillante, con il suo capitano Gareth Bale che trasforma un calcio di rigore trovando il pareggio.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

https://soikeoclub.net/soi-keo-nhan-dinh-iran-vs-iraq-23h00-ngay-27-01-2022/
Soi kèo, nhận định Iran vs Iraq, 23h00 ngày 27/01/2022
Hai đội bóng láng giềng và đầy duyên nợ Iran vs Iraq gặp lại nhau tại vòng 7, liệu với thế được đá tại Tehran Iran có thể lấy được trọn vẹn 3 điểm trước đội khách hay không?
Soi kèo Iran vs Iraq
Với Iraq, họ được đánh giá là một trong những đội tại bảng A có thể gây khó khăn cho Iran hay Hàn Quốc, tuy nhiên mới chỉ có 4 trận hòa trước Hàn Quốc, Li Băng.
Trận gần nhất để thua Hàn Quốc 0-3 ngay trên sân nhà, rõ ràng khi phải đối đầu những đối thủ mạnh nhất bảng, đội khách dễ dàng nhận thất bại tan nát.
Đoàn quân của huấn luyện viên người Hà Lan giàu kinh nghiệm Dick Advocat vẫn thể hiện được sự khó chịu nhất định, tuy nhiên khả năng bùng nổ trên hàng công đang là dấu hỏi nghiêm trọng khi họ không thể có được 3 điểm trước các đối thủ được cho là yếu hơn.
Trên hàng công họ có Ayman Hussein là người ghi nhiều bàn nhất trong năm nay cho tuyển quốc gia, anh chàng này cũng có bàn thắng phút 89 ở trận vừa với UAE. Ngoài ra có thể kể tới tiền vệ công Zahra, hậu vệ cánh giàu kinh nghiệm từng thi đấu ở Serie A Ali Adnan.
Lối chơi của Iraq cũng có phần đề cao phòng ngự làm đầu, họ bố trí 4 tiền vệ, trong đó 2 tiền cánh dâng khá cao hỗ trợ cho 2 tiền đạo mũi nhọn Resan, Zahra hoặc Hussein ở bên trên.
Iran vẫn duy trì được ngôi đầu bảng với 16 điểm, hơn Hàn Quốc 2 điểm và tạo được khoảng cách an toàn với UAE lên tới 10 điểm trong khi chỉ còn 4 lượt đấu nữa, nếu thắng Iraq đêm nay họ và UAE để thua thì họ sẽ có tấm vé tới thẳng Qatar.
Chủ nhà đã thắng 5/6 trận đã qua, hòa duy nhất đối thủ mạnh Hàn Quốc 1-1, với phong độ này không sớm thì muộn họ cũng đạt được mục tiêu ngay từ đợt tập trung tháng 1 này.
Soi kèo Iran vs Iraq
Trận trước họ dễ dàng hạ Syria 0-3 ngay trên sân khách, các nhân tố chủ lực vẫn lập công đều đặn và tỏ ra vượt trội với các đối thủ trong bảng đấu.
Hàng công của Iran không thiếu những cầu thủ chất lượng đang thi đấu tại trời u, tiền đạo Azmoun đã có 9 bàn, người chơi bên cạnh Taremi đang đá cho Porto có 6 bàn, tiền vệ kiến thiết Jahanbakhsh cũng có 4 bàn.
Ngoài ra Amiri hay Gholizadeh cũng cực kỳ nguy hiểm, đều đã có kiến tạo và lập công tại vòng bảng.
Nhận định kèo châu Á Iran vs Iraq: Iran -1
Chủ nhà chấp đúng 1 trái cho thấy giới phân tích đánh giá rất cao họ, đây là tỉ lệ mà Iran thắng 1-0 vào tháng 06/2021 mới đây tại vòng loại World Cup.
Tỉ lệ thắng của chủ nhà ở mức quá vượt trội 90% trong khi Iraq chỉ có 10% chiến thắng trong 10 trận gần nhất.
Trong 10 lần gặp nhau đã qua, Iran thắng 6 trận và chỉ để thua 2, tỉ lệ thắng cao trên 60%.
Lựa chọn Iran trận này.
Soi kèo tài xỉu Iran vs Iraq: Chọn tài 2
Trên sân nhà Iran ghi đều đặn 1 bàn/trận trong 3 trận gần nhất, tổng số bàn thắng dưới 3 lần lưới rung.
Iraq chọn lối chơi có phần cẩn trọng, 3/5 trận đã qua của họ trên sân khách cũng chỉ ghi nhận 1 bàn thắng được ghi, tỉ lệ tài bàn thắng chưa vượt 40%.
Tuy nhiên 6/10 trận giữa hai đội lại có kịch bản nhiều bàn thắng, ít nhất 3 lần lưới rung, tỉ lệ tài bàn thắng trên 60%.
Lựa chọn tài bàn thắng trận này.
Dự đoán tỷ số: Iran 2 – 1 Iraq
Nhận định Iran vs Iraq
3/5 trận gần nhất của Iran trong hiệp 1 có ít nhất 1 bàn thắng được ghi.
4/5 trận gần nhất của Iraq trong hiệp 1 không có bàn thắng nào được ghi.
3/5 trận gần nhất giữa hai đội trong hiệp 1 không có bàn thắng nào được ghi.
Iran được hưởng nhiều tình huống phạt góc hơn với 7 quả góc/trận, Iraq chỉ có 3.6 quả góc.
Hai đội phải nhận trung bình 2 thẻ vàng/trận.
Đội hình xuất phát dự kiến hai đội:
Iran: A. Beiranvand, S. Khalilzadeh, H. Kanani, S. Moharrami, A. Nourollahi, S. Ezatolahi, O. Noorafkan, M. Taremi, S. Azmoun, A. Jahanbakhsh, V. Amiri.

Iran Gets Hit by the Injury Bug
Tumblr media
Every four years Iranian football fans hope their beloved national team will finally win the Asian Cup for the first time since 1976.
Looking back at past tournaments, Iran has been the victim of controversial refereeing decisions.
But at the moment, Iranian supporters feel it will be difficult to end the long drought because injuries have hit the top ranked team in Asia.
Midfielders Saeid Ezatolahi of Reading, Ali Karimi of Esteghlal, and Ali Gholizadeh of Charleroi have been ruled out of the 2019 Asian Cup.
With Ezatolahi and Karimi being unavailable, manager Carlos Queiroz knows his roster is thin at the defensive midfield position.
The loss of Belgian-based winger Gholizadeh has taken away speed and quickness on the flanks.
But the injuries do not stop there as right-back Sadegh Moharrami of Dinamo Zagreb is also unavailable. 
The bad luck continues for striker Kaveh Rezaei of Club Brugge, who barely missed out on being included in the 23-man roster for Iran at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Iran’s first match will take place against Yemen on 7 January in Abu Dhabi.
Injuries surely cannot concern Iranian fans for the match against Yemen. 
After all, if there are difficulties getting a positive result against Yemen, then it will be difficult for Iran to win the 2019 Asian Cup or get past the second round.
As is always the case with injuries, it will be time for another player to step up and rise to the occasion.
Iran will definitely miss its best defensive midfielder in Ezatolahi. At only 22-years of age, Saeid Ezatolahi has been a regular for Team Melli since he was a teenager.
But can Omid Ebrahimi build on his excellent performance at the 2018 World Cup in Russia?
Iranian fans were more than impressed with Ebrahimi in Russia and he has the ability and fighting spirit to make up for the loss of Ezatolahi.
It is likely that this will be Ebrahimi’s last appearance at a major tournament, and this is his chance to finish his tenure with Team Melli in memorable fashion.
Prediction: Iran 3-0 Yemen

Defying U.S., China and Iran Near Trade and Military Partnership
Iran and China have quietly drafted a sweeping economic and security partnership that would clear the way for billions of dollars of Chinese investments in energy and other sectors, undercutting the Trump administration’s efforts to isolate the Iranian government because of its nuclear and military ambitions.
The partnership, detailed in an 18-page proposed agreement obtained by The New York Times, would vastly expand Chinese presence in banking, telecommunications, ports, railways and dozens of other projects. In exchange, China would receive a regular — and, according to an Iranian official and an oil trader, heavily discounted — supply of Iranian oil over the next 25 years.
The document also describes deepening military cooperation, potentially giving China a foothold in a region that has been a strategic preoccupation of the United States for decades. It calls for joint training and exercises, joint research and weapons development and intelligence sharing — all to fight “the lopsided battle with terrorism, drug and human trafficking and cross-border crimes.”
The partnership — first proposed by China’s leader, Xi Jinping, during a visit to Iran in 2016 — was approved by President Hassan Rouhani’s cabinet in June, Iran’s foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, said last week.
Iranian officials have publicly stated that there is a pending agreement with China, and one Iranian official, as well as several people who have discussed it with the Iranian government, confirmed that it is the document obtained by The Times, which is labeled “final version” and dated June, 2020.
It has not yet been submitted to Iran’s Parliament for approval or made public, stoking suspicions in Iran about how much the government is preparing to give away to China.
In Beijing, officials have not disclosed the terms of the agreement, and it is not clear whether Mr. Xi’s government has signed off or, if it has, when it might announce it.
If put into effect as detailed, the partnership would create new and potentially dangerous flash points in the deteriorating relationship between China and the United States.
It represents a major blow to the Trump administration’s aggressive policy toward Iran since abandoning the nuclear deal reached in 2015 by President Obama and the leaders of six other nations after two years of grueling negotiations.
Renewed American sanctions, including the threat to cut off access to the international banking system for any company that does business in Iran, have succeeded in suffocating the Iranian economy by scaring away badly needed foreign trade and investment.
But Tehran’s desperation has pushed it into the arms of China, which has the technology and appetite for oil that Iran needs. Iran has been one of the world’s largest oil producers, but its exports, Tehran’s largest source of revenue, have plunged since the Trump administration began imposing sanctions in 2018; China gets about 75 percent of its oil from abroad and is the world’s largest importer, at more than 10 million barrels a day last year.
At a time when the United States is reeling from recession and the coronavirus, and increasingly isolated internationally, Beijing senses American weakness. The draft agreement with Iran shows that unlike most countries, China feels it is in a position to defy the United States, powerful enough to withstand American penalties, as it has in the trade war waged by President Trump.
“Two ancient Asian cultures, two partners in the sectors of trade, economy, politics, culture and security with a similar outlook and many mutual bilateral and multilateral interests will consider one another strategic partners,” the document says in its opening sentence.
The Chinese investments in Iran, which two people who have been briefed on the deal said would total $400 billion over 25 years, could trigger still more punitive actions against Chinese companies, which have already been targeted by the administration in recent months.
“The United States will continue to impose costs on Chinese companies that aid Iran, the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism,” a State Department spokeswoman wrote in response to questions about the draft agreement.
“By allowing or encouraging Chinese companies to conduct sanctionable activities with the Iranian regime, the Chinese government is undermining its own stated goal of promoting stability and peace.”
The expansion of military assistance, training and intelligence-sharing will also be viewed with alarm in Washington. American warships already tangle regularly with Iranian forces in the crowded waters of the Persian Gulf and challenge China’s internationally disputed claim to much of the South China Sea, and the Pentagon’s national security strategy has declared China an adversary.
When reports of a long-term investment agreement with Iran surfaced last September, China’s foreign ministry dismissed the question out of hand. Asked about it again last week, a spokesman, Zhao Lijian, left open the possibility that a deal was in the works.
“China and Iran enjoy traditional friendship, and the two sides have been in communication on the development of bilateral relations,” he said. “We stand ready to work with Iran to steadily advance practical cooperation.”
The projects — nearly 100 are cited in the draft agreement — are very much in keeping with Mr. Xi’s ambitions to extend its economic and strategic influence across Eurasia through the “Belt and Road Initiative,” a vast aid and investment program.
The projects, including airports, high-speed railways and subways, would touch the lives of millions of Iranians. China would develop free-trade zones in Maku, in northwestern Iran; in Abadan, where the Shatt al-Arab river flows into the Persian Gulf, and on the Gulf island Qeshm.
The agreement also includes proposals for China to build the infrastructure for a 5G telecommunications network, to offer the new Chinese Global Positioning System, Beidou, and to help Iranian authorities assert greater control over what circulates in cyberspace, presumably as China’s Great Firewall does.
The American campaign against a major Chinese telecommunications company, Huawei, includes a criminal case against its chief financial officer, Meng Wanzhou, for seeking to disguise investments in Iran in order to evade American sanctions. The Trump administration has barred Huawei from involvement in 5G development in the United States, and has tried, without great success, to persuade other countries to do the same.
Moving ahead with a broad investment program in Iran appears to signal Beijing’s growing impatience with the Trump administration after its abandonment of the nuclear agreement. China has repeatedly called on the administration to preserve the deal, which it was a party to, and has sharply denounced the American use of unilateral sanctions.
Iran has traditionally looked west toward Europe for trade and investment partners. Increasingly though, it has grown frustrated with European countries that have opposed Mr. Trump’s policy but quietly withdrawn from the kinds of deals that the nuclear agreement once promised.
“Iran and China both view this deal as a strategic partnership in not just expanding their own interests but confronting the U.S.,” said Ali Gholizadeh, an Iranian energy researcher at the University of Science and Technology of China in Beijing. “It is the first of its kind for Iran keen on having a world power as an ally.”
The proposed partnership has nonetheless stoked a fierce debate within Iran. Mr. Zarif, the foreign minister, who traveled to Beijing last October to negotiate the agreement, faced hostile questioning about it in Parliament last week.
The document was provided to The Times by someone familiar with its drafting with the intention of showing the scope of the projects now under consideration.
Mr. Zarif said the agreement would be submitted to Parliament for final approval. It has the support of Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, two Iranian officials said.
Mr. Khamenei’s top economic adviser, Ali Agha Mohammadi, appeared on state television recently to discuss the need for an economic lifeline. He said Iran needs to increase its oil production to at least 8.5 million barrels a day in order to remain a player in the energy market, and for that, it needs China.
Iranian supporters of the strategic partnership say that given the country’s limited economic options, the free-falling currency and the dim prospect of U.S. sanctions being lifted, the deal with China could provide a lifeline.
“Every road is closed to Iran,” said Fereydoun Majlesi, a former diplomat and a columnist for several Iranian newspapers on diplomacy. “The only path open is China. Whatever it is, until sanctions are lifted, this deal is the best option.”
But critics across the political spectrum in Iran have raised concerns that the government is secretly “selling off” the country to China in a moment of economic weakness and international isolation. In a speech in late June, a former president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, called it a suspicious secret deal that the people of Iran would never approve.
The critics have cited previous Chinese investment projects that have left countries in Africa and Asia indebted and ultimately beholden to the authorities in Beijing. A particular concern has been the proposed port facilities in Iran, including two along the coast of the Sea of Oman.
One at Jask, just outside of the Strait of Hormuz, the entrance to the Persian Gulf, would give the Chinese a strategic vantage point on the waters through which much of the world’s oil transits. The passage is of critical strategic importance to the United States, whose Navy’s Fifth Fleet is headquartered in Bahrain, in the Gulf.
China has already constructed a series of ports along the Indian Ocean, creating a necklace of refueling and resupply stations from the South China Sea to the Suez Canal. Ostensibly commercial in nature, the ports potentially have military value, too, allowing China’s rapidly growing Navy to expand its reach.
Those include ports at Hambantota in Sri Lanka and Gwadar in Pakistan, which are widely criticized as footholds for a potential military presence, though no Chinese forces have officially been deployed at them.
China opened its first overseas military base in Djibouti in 2015, ostensibly to support its forces participating in international antipiracy operations off the coast of Somalia. The outpost, which began as a logistics base but is now more heavily fortified, is within miles of the American base in that country.
China has also stepped up military cooperation with Iran. The People’s Liberation Army Navy has visited and participated in military exercises at least three times, beginning in 2014. The most recent was last December, when a Chinese missile destroyer, the Xining, joined a naval exercise with the Russian and Iranian navies in the Gulf of Oman.
China’s state-owned Xinhua news agency quoted the commander of Iran’s Navy, Rear Adm. Hossein Khanzadi, saying that the exercise showed “the era of American invasions in the region is over.”

But the injuries do not stop there as right-back Sadegh Moharrami of Dinamo Zagreb is also unavailable
The bad luck continues for striker Kaveh Rezaei of Club Brugge, who barely missed out on being included in the 23-man roster for Iran at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

※ Current Odds Date & Time: January 5, 6:00 p.m. (GMT)
Iran’s first match will take place against Yemen on 7 January in Abu Dhabi and online bookmaker 10Bet has the latest odds.
Currently Iran is favored with 2/25 odds while Yemen has 25/1 odds.
Injuries surely cannot concern Iranian fans for the match against Yemen. After all, if there are difficulties getting a positive result against Yemen, then it will be difficult for Iran to win the 2019 Asian Cup or get past the second round.
As is always the case with injuries, it will be time for another player to step up and rise to the occasion.
Iran will definitely miss its best defensive midfielder in Ezatolahi. At only 22-years of age, Saeid Ezatolahi has been a regular for Team Melli since he was a teenager.
Tumblr media
But can Omid Ebrahimi build on his excellent performance at the 2018 World Cup in Russia?
Iranian fans were more than impressed with Ebrahimi in Russia and he has the ability and fighting spirit to make up for the loss of Ezatolahi.
It is likely that this will be Ebrahimi’s last appearance at a major tournament, and this is his chance to finish his tenure with Team Melli in memorable fashion.
Prediction: Iran 3-0 Yemen
