Iran 1 New Zealand 1
iran 0 Belgium 2
iran 0 Egypt 1
we not winning a single game with Ghalenoi as the coach ,,,, we be even lucky to get a draw with NZ ,,,
but compared to all the other groups we go a easy draw….compared to the other Asian teams …Comment

NZ will desperately fight and try to steal a point from us…if so, we will lose all motivation and hunger thereafter and end up the tournament with a point
or we will snatch all 3 , and go face a Belgium who are passed their golden generation of players, and are amidst a transitional era ...maybe with an unhealthy Doku or Trossard we can steal ourselves a point?

yes this is the most likely outcome, with a draw we will lose all motivation and hunger and just crash out the last two matchesOriginally posted by a_m View Post

It is a dream group because we have a decent shot at not having more than -3 GD per game. This is the best we can hope for with GN. I’m very happy we aren’t facing better teams and conceding 5+ per game. I predict something likeOriginally posted by orbicular View Post

A bit of a history for the younger ones here:
Iran foorball record against New Zealand includes two games a tie and a win. Both games I remember.
The first game was in August of 1973 in Auckland and in preparation for a match against Australia for the 1974 West Germany World Cup qualification. In those days AFC and OFC combined had only 1 spot in WC. Iran and Australia had reached the final of the qualification process. Iran's game against New Zealand ended 0-0, an uneventful game that also left Iran with number of injuries to key players. This proved deadly as Iran lost the match against Australia 3-0 a couple of days after. Many criticized the coach (Mahajerani) and the Federation for arranging this friendly so close to a critical game. Anyway, Iran won the return game in Tehran 2-0 (both scored by GhelichKhani), but it was short of beating Australia on aggregate and Iran failed to qualify for WC in 1974. However, Iran was on such accelerating progress in football that everyone knew World Cup qualification will be in reach soon, something that materialized in 1978 with decisive qualification.
The second game against New Zealand, was in October 2003 in Tehran. This game was arranged between the two federation as AFC-OFC challenge. In a year prior, New Zealand had managed to become the champion of OFC Nations Cup for first-time in its history by beating Australia. This match ended 3-0 for Iran. Iran dominated the game throughout the 90 min. If I recall correctly Ali Daie scored one or two of the goals.
Hope above is useful ..Comment

I posted this in response to someone who said it’s a dream group but he has no faith in Iran’s team. Advancing out of this group is doable for Iran, but they have to be at their best in every way imaginable. They need to feature their best players, including Sardar, Ghaedi and Kushki, and adopt a tight defensive set up. And, hopefully, the fact that they’re already being counted out by many football analystsOriginally posted by aariaa View Post

Wow both the New Zealand and Belgium matches will be in LA. Final match vs Egypt in SeattleComment

Wow 3 home games for us… as long as our fans dont turn their back on TM like they did in 22.
New Zealand is a must win. We can lose vs Belgium and play for a draw/win vs Egypt. Do best 3rd place teams qualify for R32?
R32 can become a reality for us, without GN of course.SHOW TIME!Comment
