How about Kuwait? I still can't forget that time where their B team beat our TM. That was really sad.

Added them.

[Tehranto]

Our most competitive rivalries have been vs. Asia's Big 5 (Japan, Australia, South Korea and Saudi Arabia).

Although we haven't played too many football matches vs. Australia.

What game?
I know at least 2 occasions where our reserve team beat theirs.

Sometimes people just focus on wins and losses.

But those 2 draws vs Australia were two of the most nerve racking matches Iran's fans had to endure.

Statistically it shows S Korea is our closest and most unpredictable head to head rivals.
Classic rivals.

Iran's All-Time Records vs. Other Asian Teams

Why is is that we never seem to play Australia in these qualifiers?

9 years as part of AFC and we still keep avoiding each other.

[Kian Persepolis]

Are you sure we have the better record against Saudi Arabia? This website says otherwise.

I truly believe the Asian cup was fixed for Australia to win. Which is why we got screwed over. Afc knew we were the only teamb there that would beat australia

Oh, the wins on penalties don't count huh?

[pajamNL]

Yeah I think it only counts as a statistical win/loss if it is within the 120 minutes.
