Set two, but mostly because those Lebanese people look pretty pan-west Eurasian and even very European looking, whereas some of those Finns couldn't pass in most of Europe outside of the North-East/East like Carljohan who you posted the back of his head only..
But most of those Finnish guys could pass as individuals too in Spain. So maybe I'll say somewhere equally, just because at least two of the Lebanese guys look a bit too Levantine. But the Lebanese team has more people who'd pass closer to the average look than the Finnish team does.

Neither; although the second group has 5 more individuals than the first.

Individually some could pass, but not as a group.

These could happen more or less; although it would take more photos and something impossible which would be to see them in person.

Tooting, why did you remove the more extreme Levantine types from the Lebanese?

Interesting you didn't include him:

I've seen many Spaniards that look like this.

For ironically the same reason why I did not include the stereotypical potato-faced platinum-blond Finnish players: because they'd be utterly impassable.

His gaze doesn't quite speak, it's still very vague, you don't quite know if he's going to give you a hug or a punch, something very typical of Slavic looks; I don't know where this guy is from, though. The gaze of the rest of the guys in my selection is totally communicative, their gazes speak, they give information.

Both in equal measure. Some of the Finns and Lebanese could pass but it's important to emphasise that either group would be a very odd group of "Iberians".

And keep in mind that I left out both the platinum-blond potato head Finns, as well as the Lebanese who look wholesale Gulf Arab or South Asian. Now which specific players from the two sets pass best in your opinion?

Boy, this is all very subjective and they're not the best photos (some I can't even see their faces well) so I'm only going to choose one of each, the ones I consider to be the best candidates.

A mix of both sets.

Some in both sets can pass, but there are also quite a few in both who I would never mistake as being Iberian first.
