Has an Asian team ever been seeded in pot 2 or pot 1 before, besides off course Japan and SK which were pot 1 due to being hosts in 2002.

This is the new format that came into play in world cup 2014.
Before that it had different formats

WC 2010 pot2 had asian + North America & Oceania teams

so all 4 asian teams were in pot 2

Both japan and sk had easier teams and made it to next round.

However, the likes of Peru, Serbia and Turkey can win against us.

So close to top 20 hopefully we win all of our remaining WCQs and keep moving up

[Hosseini]

Iran's top rank was 15th in the world in 2005 I believe. Imagine if we top that. Would be insane

The algorithm actually changed at that point and Iran dropped to 47th immediately after, in 2006

So it's even more impressive that Iran is approaching top 20 now

Not possible bro. We cant have both germany and usa on same group. they are both in pot 2 .

win against South korea is must if we want to avoid any group of deaths. Even a draw would add negative points on our ranking
