    Japan beat Vietnam 1-0
    Iran beat China 3-0

    So they are the first two semi- finalists.

    Still happy with my pre tournament pick of Iran.

    Qatar haven't conceded a goal in the tournament and have won every game... not suspicous at all.

    Qatar won more games in this Asian Cup (7 out of 7) than they won in all 9 Asian Cups they played in before this combined (6 out of 32).

    Dont think so

    Otherwise 11 naturalised brazilians would be lining out for Qatar
