So a usual Canadian summers day then.

Er, what?! Not sure whether this should be under the shiteness of modern football.

 

Iran have been accused of playing a man as goalkeepers for their women's national team against fierce rivals Jordan who are demanding a 'gender verification' probe.

Zohreh Koudaei, 32, saved two penalties during the 4-2 shoot-out victory over Jordan in Uzbekistan on September 25, meaning the Iranian women's team qualified for its first ever Women's Asia Cup.

The President of Jordan's FA, Prince Ali bin al-Hussein, tweeted a letter 'requesting a gender verification check' on Koudaei from the Asian Football Federation (AFC).

The Iranian team manager has denied the allegations, claiming that the Jordanian team, who were heavy favourites, were seeking an 'excuse' for losing the match. 

 

 

A spokesman of the AFC said: 'The AFC does not comment on ongoing investigations and/or proceedings, whether actual or potential.'   

Prince Ali, a former vice-president of FIFA, called it a 'very serious issue if true', and demanded that the AFC 'please wake up'.

Koudaei has faced questions in the past over her gender, as reported by Saudi broadcaster Al Arabiya

But Iran team's selector, Maryam Irandoost, dismissed the allegation.

'The medical staff have carefully examined each player on the national team in terms of hormones to avoid any problems in this regard, and so I tell all fans not to worry,' Irandoost told sports news site Varzesh3 on Sunday.

The coach said that Koudaei had previously represented her country in Asian Cup qualifiers in 2008 and 2010. 

'We will provide any documentation that the Asian Confederation of Football wishes without wasting time,' she added.

The Jordan Football Association's letter, dated November 5, cited doubts over the 'eligibility of a participating player'. 

It also alleged that the Iranian women's team 'has a history with gender and doping issues', and called for 'due process' to be followed.

Irandoost said the accusation was being used to cover up for Jordan's loss.

'These allegations are just an excuse not to accept the defeat against the Iranian women's national team,' she said.

'The Jordanian team considered themselves the big favourite to qualify... and when they lost... it was natural to seek relief under false pretences and to escape responsibility for this failure.'

I would

[Boss]

These two are waiting in the wings if Koudaei can't play the next game...

 

 

Everything is above board here officer. I think you'll find their papers check out just fine.

I’ve always wondered what Sunno))) look like.

 

 

[Pidge]

Ramsay has been a liability for Wales today, just decked Neco trying to tackle him for some reason. Just focus on getting a late run into the box, Aaron.

 

Also got to love that fairly sizable contingent that always shouts "SHOOOT" whenever some hard-working holding midfielder gets hold of the ball 45 yards from goal. Thought you wanted to score, lads...

[M_B]

Neco Williams playing well for Wales. Played well in the last match too.

[Pidge]

When did Wales hire the England band?

 

Origi injured. FFS.

[Tj hooker]

Definitely a player in there this lad Neco Williams,  You can see the Klopp effect kicking in from last season

I've always thought he had something about him. Definitely good enough cover right now

He has some attacking abilities. He might just be a bad right back.

[Freddo]

Our physios will be on someovertime hours soon. Origi. Fucking hell eh. This international break has been a right twat 

[Pidge]

Boyata looks out of it here, nasty collision with Moore. 

 

He's up now he's been patched up. Still looks a bit dopey but, Boyata...

Absolutely playing left back as well tonight 

[Pidge]

Oooh, that wasn't out. Great cross as well.

[M_B]

Neco Williams playing like an inside forward.

[Pidge]

Well done Wales. Quality match, that.
