Now, I am so happy to be back into the team. It\u2019s a great honor to wear the national colors\u201d the AZ Alkmaar player said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIran coach (Carlos Queiroz) started the rejuvenation of the national team from the AFC Asian Cup. The young players can take advantage of the old players\u2019 experiences and the experienced players will be motivated by the young players and I think it helps the team to progress,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p>Group D leader Iran football team has been scheduled to play Guam on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p>A victory against Gary White\u2019s men will guarantee a place for the Iranian team in the next round. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe traveled to Guam right away after the Turkmenistan match.
