One of the worst refs ever.
6 minutes extra time...why?
Iraq played great in the second half and the first goal was an obvious offside...
I might seem salty for the loss, but this is the third game where the ref's decisions have killed us
(Australia's game, there was an obvious PK, and in KSA's game the ref gave two pk's in the 15 or 10 minutes).
For the 2 PKs in Saudi game, they were so clear, I can show you the video + other high level refs discussing it in Arabic and English.
Good luck Iraq in Qualifying
