    Quote from boca

    We have contradictory informations on Jean-Claude Iranzi. As a birthplace, we have Kigali, Rwanda. This article: http://www.newtimes.co.rw/section/article/2014-04-04/74359/, however, says that his birthplace is Democratic Republic of Congo. The birthdates also don't match (we have 1992-12-04, the article says 1990-10-05)...


    This is a common issue with pretty a big chunk of African players. DoB isn't clear with different DoB's reported and in some cases the PoB's aren't clear either.

    Quote from Benjamin

    Well, you never know - sometimes players actually do get booked while still on the bench.


    Ya, definitely possible but very rare and I doubt it for this match. Possibly mistaken identity from the people running the live text. The live text also mentioned that Rustamov played for Tajikistan which is another mistake.

    Quote from Benjamin

    The yellow card for Khamrokulov in th 30th minute in puzzling. Dif he get it while he was still on the bench?


    Oh right. :lol: :lol: The live text made a mistake then. Whoever got the booking, I don't know.


    Maldives:
    Imran Mohamed, Mohamed Shifan, Akram Abdul Gani (Ahmed Niyaz 78'), Rilwan Waheed, Amdhan Ali, Shafiu Ahmed (Samdhooh Mohamed 75'), Mohamed Arif [c] (Moosa Yamin 87'), Assadhulla Abdulla, Mohamed Umair (Ahmed Nashid 46'), Hussein Niyaz (Ismail Easa 66'), Assad Ali (Hassan Adhuham 81').

    Bookings: Assad Ali 9'; Khamrokulov 30', Davronov 83', Nazarov 89'

    Bahrain 10-0 Indonesia, 29.2.12

    FIFA screwed up with the match summary. Abdullatif did not score a hattrick. His listed third goal at 75' - well there was no goal scored at that time, let alone by him. lol. Correct scorers should be:

    Abdullatif - 5' pen, 71'
    Al-Tayeb - 16', 60', 66'
    Abdulrahman - 35' pen, 42'
    Dhiya - 63', 82', 90+4'


    Speaking of WCQ's. The match summaries for the preliminaries for Asia (for 2018) are suppose to be provisional at this point. For the first leg between Taiwan and Brunei, Adi Said is the given scorer but footage proves he didn't touch the ball as it went in from a cross. As per the Brunei Times, Ak. Fakharazzi Hassan was the player who put that cross in and therefore should be credited with the goal.

    From the Royal Gazette:

    Bermuda (4-5-1): S Dill – T Burgess, D Leverock, J Bather, J Harvey - L Simmons (sub: C Robinson, 46min), T Ming, D Bascome (sub: M Hill, 79), M Warren (sub: C Castle, 53), Z Lewis (sub: J Swan, 86) – A Russell (sub: R Simons, 53).

    Goals: A Russell 11', C Castle 90+
    Booked: Harvey

    Grenada (4-5-1): J Belfon – S Phillip, L St John, C Langaigne, M Mark (sub: I Smith, 74), H Cuffie (sub: W Rennie, 37) – J Rennie, S Rennie, M Phillip, T James (B Graneau, 79) – K Bain (sub: R Phillip, 88th).

    Booked: S Phillip, St John, S Rennie.


    Times of goals as per IslandStats. Also as per the same site, bookings are a bit contradictory:

    BER: Harvey 28'
    GRN: M Phillip 26', W Rennie 40', S Rennie 56'

    From the Royal Gazette


    Bermuda (3-4-3): D Bell — W White (sub: T Ming, 81min), M Hill, J Hayward — T Manders, Z Lewis, D Brangman, T Webb — J Donawa (sub: J Harvey, 58), R Simons (sub: A Russell, 81), J Raynor (sub: C Robinson, 68).

    Goals: R Simons 22', J Raynor 45+2'
    Booked: Webb, Manders (first half), Hill (early in 2nd half). Sent off: Webb (Yellow in each half; second at 51')


    Grenada (4-3-3): J Belfon — L St John, M Marshall, S Phillip, C Langaigne — J Rennie (sub: B Graneau, 87), S Rennie (sub: I Smith, 82), W Rennie (sub: H Cuffie, 60) — M Phillip, K Bain, T James (sub: R Phillip, 72).

    Goals: J Rennie 20', R Phillip 77'
    Booked: M Phillip, W Rennie.

    Note: The Royal Gazette actually gives Grenada's first scorer as Shane Rennie, while it's given as Terry James as bekerrp has listed as per IslandStats. Actual scorer is the captain Jake Rennie.

    vs. Uganda 25.11.11

    Despite what the supposed official match summary lists with Zanzibar making two subs, IPPmedia also has Jaku Juma replacing Ali Mkanga at 47' and Makame Hamad coming on at 65', not 62'. Whichever is accurate.....

    2011
    Line-up vs Congo DR on 10 August

    Pa Dembo Touray; Mamadou Danso, Abdou Jammeh, Pa Modou Jagne, Ebrima Sohna; Mustapha Jarju, Tijan Jaiteh, Dawda Bah, Sanna Nyassi (Ali Sowe); Momodou Ceesay (Foday Trawally), Demba Savage (Abdoulie Mansally)

    Report says there were eight key players missing due to club commitments, and there were three unused subs listed which would make it a 17-man squad. Therefore line-up and subs used should be accurate.

    As I've provided earlier in the thread back in 2012, Gambia's line-up vs. DR Congo.

    Also Botswana-Malawi friendly on 3.9.13 is non-FIFA.

    Some more missing scorers and goal times.

    The dates of the Sri Lanka-Tajikistan friendlies in March 2011 are the wrong way around. The draw was on the 27th.
    27.3 - Safraz Kaiz 12' pen, Mohamed Zain 80'; Ibrahim Rabimov 56', Dilshod Vosiev 73'
    Asanka Viraj was Sri Lanka's GK.

    29.3 - Davron Ergashev 21', Dilshod Vosiev 23'

    30.12.2009, Yemen-Tajkistan
    Khaled Baleid 71', Ali Al-Nono 85'; Ibrahim Rabimov 35'

    Tajikistan

    Malaysia
    28.4.2012 - Haikal 25', 27', Hazwan 72', 82', 90+1', Azzamudin 85'

    Add Non-FIFA matches all in Shenzhen, China:

    Quote from archivist

    So it means that FIFA won't count as full internationals 2 games involving full-strength squads without a too high number of substitutions ?
    While at the same time FIFA stats include CHAN games (including qualifyers), a competition which forbids full-strength squads...

    Deplorable...


    The Korea-Saudi friendly being deleted is surprising. Korea, at least in the modern era doesn't really play unofficial matches especially if their opponent is a full national team.

    However, Cape Verde-Congo being deleted, I'm actually not really surprised. I don't know why it was deleted but my guess is that it wasn't authorized. You look at Cape Verde's friendly matches against Burkina Faso in May 2008 and February 2011, both played in Portugal, the Portuguese FA say that thy don't know anything about them because they never gave authorization for such matches!
