hey dani just a little correction :
Albert Zeinoun 17 points
Gerard Hadidian 16 points
Jimmy Salem 15 points
Izzat Kaissi 14 points

Albert Zeinoun also got 10 steals and 5 assists and scored a killer 3 point in the last 26 seconds where lebanon was behind by 1 point ....
besides jimmy did not have a bad game he played excellent but the whole team played in a great way that the score was divided among different players and that's what we need ......

and heres the link for an exclusive interview for sports-leb.com with Coach Joe Moujaes after the win!


he said that the game was tough, but they knew how to control it, after they switched their defense to full court press, which hurt the Iranian team a lot, and then our Lebanese players got some crucial baskets specially Mark Korjian who came off the bench and scored 7 pts in 2 mins followed by a huge 3 pointer by Albert Zeinoun, and then Jimmy got foul and 2 FTs made, and finally Gerrard got another foul and secured the win by scoring 1 out of 2 FTs!

GO LEBANONNNNN!
