Carlos Kirosh's team was much better and got their due with dramatic goals from the feet of Cheshmi (98) and Razayan (101) • On Tuesday: a huge battle against the USA


In the match that opened the second round of the group stage of the World Cup in Qatar, the teams of Wales and Iran met today (Friday) as part of Group B.

The Welsh came after the 1:1 against the USA and the Iranians, who are in a difficult time in light of what is happening in their country, also carried on their backs the heavy defeat to England last Monday (6:2).

Before the game, Iran's players looked upset again but unlike the game against England, this time they sang the national anthem, apparently in light of the threats they received from the authorities in their country.

On the grass, they provided a heroic game, got into many more situations, controlled the tempo but unfortunately could not find the net of their opponent and looked very frustrated.

In the 87th minute, Wales goalkeeper Wayne Hennessy was sent off after hitting Mehdi Tarmi, Porto's great striker, outside the area, in an event that completely changed the game.

The Iranians continued to press and were rewarded deeply in extra time.

In the 99th minute, an Iranian ball was splashed by the Wales defense straight to the feet of Rozva Chashemi who gave a bomb outside the box to the corner and ran to celebrate with his friends. Is it over? Really not. Just before the final whistle Tarmi took a burst forward, found Ramin Razayan, and the last Bounced the second. A huge 0:2 for the Iranians in one of their greatest victories in history.

On Tuesday, they will meet the USA in a match that is much more than football, if Iran concentrate on football, they can come with great confidence. Wales, you will need a miracle to advance to the next stage.
