We will play the first game against Portugal, so the loser will have a lot of pressure for the next two matches. And Iran and Morocco are not the easy opponents to beat,\u201d Salgado said in an interview with Noticanarias.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpain will face Iran in the second match. Iran is a very tricky opponent and takes advantage of a coach that we know very well. Carlos Queiroz has done a great job with his team. They have qualified for the 2018 World Cup in a big way,\u201d the former Real Madrid defender added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd Morocco have sealed their ticket without conceding a single goal in the third phase of the qualifiers. So they will be another great rival to beat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I said, the first game against Portugal will be very important. The Portuguese are the current European champions. However, if we look at the individuals, I think Spain is a better team than Portugal. I see the Spanish team will advance to the next stages and fight to win the World Cup,\u201d Salgado concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tehran Times &#8211; MADRID, Ex-Spain national football team right back Michel Salgado says Iran are&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26307,"featured_media":31736,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[84,91,86,110],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c47-featured-news","category-c20-other-news","category-c13-team-melli-news","category-world-cup"],"views":1419,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26307"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31735"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31735\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31737,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31735\/revisions\/31737"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
