Iraq coach Jorvan Vieira was very confident that his team would do something against Saudi Arabia and win the Asian trophy. “I don't know why but I was very calm today. On the morning of the game I felt very well, sometimes this happens to me. “I can feel when I'm going to lose a match but today I felt well and was secure that we could do something because of my relationship with the players. They have so much confidence, they were so sure and they wanted to win because it is very important for their country. Iraq produced a beautiful display against the Saudis and won their first ever title thanks to a goal from Younes Khalaf, 1-0. “We won today 1-0 but it was not enough for me. With all respect to Saudi Arabia, we could have won 2 or 3-0 today. “I came here to win from the beginning. I want to win every time because I am a bad loser. Every time I wish to be here. When I watched Japan winning the Asian Cup in Lebanon in 2000, I thought: ‘I will be there one day' and now I'm here.” Despite the glory Vieira has decided to quit the team and to look for a new adventure.
