We are looking to close the gap between Team Melli and the big teams in the world,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran will start the campaign on Nov. 21 with a match against Group B favorites England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEnglish are the great team and everybody is well aware of their strength. It\u2019s our honor and pleasure to meet them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the recent days, some English media reported that FIFA has received a letter requesting Iran are kicked out of the World Cup in Qatar due to the current situation for women in the country. However, Queiroz says the Iranian people don\u2019t support the campaign<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMost of the Iranian people have a clear answer to this campaign. They want their national football team to participate in the 2022 World Cup, and this answer is enough for this campaign,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI thank the coaches for their excellent cooperation with the national team. The big challenge we face on the way to the World Cup is the level of players\u2019 preparation. We try to improve the level of them before the competition begins,\u201d Queiroz concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tehran Times &#8211; TEHRAN, Iran national football team head coach Carlos Queiroz is worried about&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26307,"featured_media":47245,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[84,92,91,86,110],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c47-featured-news","category-c21-international-football-news","category-c20-other-news","category-c13-team-melli-news","category-world-cup"],"views":630,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47244","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=47244"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":47374,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47244\/revisions\/47374"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
