🐐 Mehdi Taremi delivers a passionate pre-match speech in the dressing room ahead of Iran’s clash with Belgium, with Alireza Jahanbakhsh also helping fire up and motivate the squad.
Team Melli left this note in their locker room at SoFi Stadium:
“From the ancient Persia of thousands of years ago to the civilised Iran of today, the spirit of Iran remains alive and steadfast. Thank you Los Angeles for your hospitality. We came to Los Angeles with pride, competed with honour, and leave with dignity.”
Be very sincere, have you ever seen a stadium like this in world football? The infrastructure, facilities, and fan experience have been exceptional. Congratulations to the USA 🇺🇸. This World Cup has been unforgettable.
I absolutely love how Iran line up for a full squad photo before every match.
United against FIFA’s discrimination.
United against the world.

🚨 Thierry Henry: “Iran could have won this game, there was a dilemma for them to put in more bodies after the red card. They didn’t want to take the risk. It’s still an amazing result for Iran.”
