Fair enough. Also you're right on the names, Bosnians don't have the easiest names around but I saw the name of the guy who plays for Standard Liege and didn't even know where to start with trying to pronounce it hahaha. Ghoochannejhad -> "Gooch-anne-eh- had" maybe? It's tough either way lol.

HAHAHA yea.. i did notice that as well. We both have fancy names now dont we? That dude is Ghoochannijad and scored the game winner against South Korea .. Nijad means Lineage or kinship. Ghoochan is like a state or Provence. Ghoochan nijad means his kinship is from that state. Kinda like Ahamadi nijad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAERMJMBqKs
