May 5:
17:00 Lebanon vs Iraq
19:00 Iran vs Jordan

May 6:
17:00 Iraq vs Iran

its noteworthy to mention that this tournament is divided into 2 rounds, the first round has took place In Iran the past october and Iraq got the title.
and also it worth mention that Iran had a camp with 8 games on high level in Turkey, the same goes to Iraq who participate in Effes Pilsen tournament as reportedly mentioned by iraqi newspaper, while Jordan had a camp in Lebanon!
While our beloved Lebanese NT had barely a one month practice without any camps inside or outside the country, they played few games against universities and division 3 teams!
but as usual, we have the talent and the heart to perform well, good luck to our boys!

standings for the round 1:
1- Iraq 6 pts from 3 wins
2-Iran 5 pts from 2 wins and 1 loss
3-Lebanon 4 pts from 1 win and 2 losses
4-Jordan 3 pts no wins

yes true always we have this problem ... all other teams in any division they start preparing much earlier then us and we always wait till the last minute knowing that we should have started preparing right after the first round was finished.. but i am confident that even with not much time to prepare we have some great talents in our u16 NT and i think this time they will have 3 out of 3 .... i wish them all the best and luck ....
