WC22 TM's preparation and friendlies

[Abtin]

Ok so when can we say both matches are officially confirmed? When IFF announce it on their website? Or what is the "confirmed" checkmark here?

Any updates on Uruguay? According to Hatem, IR Iran is trying to get an exemption playing Russia. Doubt FIFA would do it.

It’s a rumor from a Russian telegram site. Not much weight to it.

Check out their Twitter page Nokhodi, they retweeted Tehranto's tweet.

The article title doesn’t match with the body.

Headline makes it seem confirmed. The body says “could” - as in not final.

World - Friendly Lions: Senegal-Iran confirmed for September 27 - Lequotidien - Journal d'information Générale

Announced in recent months, the Senegal-Iran friendly match will finally take place. The two federations have confirmed the date of September 27, in Austria. The Fsf hopes before landing another opponent to play between September 23 and 24.

By Woury DIALLO – Our colleagues from Record had swung the info: “The Lions of Senegal could meet Iran on September 27 in Austria, as part of a friendly preparation match for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Negotiations between the Iranian Football Federation and its counterpart in Senegal are very advanced, ”wrote the sports daily of the Gfm Group a week ago.

Things have changed a lot in the meantime. Indeed, Le Quotidien has learned that the two federations have finally agreed on a friendly Senegal-Iran match, set for September 27 in Austria.
As a result, the coach, Aliou Cissé, has a first sparring partner on the road to Qatar; while waiting to win a second that he still plans to face in Austria.

Another desired friendly “between September 23 and 24”
And under this register, the negotiations continue to play a first match before Iran. And the Senegalese Football Federation wants to schedule this match “between September 23 and 24”, we are told.

It is true that in such a context, linked to the League of Nations tournament, finding European opponents becomes a real obstacle course. Failing that, the Latin American track could be an alternative.

But already, it is a sporting gain for Aliou Cissé to play Iran, perhaps thinking of Qatar, one of the opponents of the Lions at the World Cup.

It should also be remembered that Iranian leaders have long expressed the wish to play against the first African team, which has now become African champions.

On the sidelines of the Assises de l'économie organized by the National Union of Traders, Operators and Investors of Senegal (Unacois Yeessal), last May in Dakar, the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Senegal, Mohammad Reza Dehshiri, spoke about a possible friendly match between the two countries.

“We are in talks with the president of the Senegalese Football Federation, Me Augustin Senghor, on a friendly match between Senegal and Iran. We agreed on two dates, one in June and the other in September. We hope that we can welcome the Senegalese team to Iran.” His wish was finally granted.

You snooze you lose.
Teams aren't going to wait while IFF members sit around braiding each others butt hairs.

It's going to be another last minute desperate attempt to find opponents for the September FIFA days.

I'd be surprised if we have more than one friendly, let alone either of those being against a team ranked higher than 50 in FIFA rankings.
