a very upset Ramin Rezaein wins man of the match

he goes home with two World Cup MOTM trophies from three games (so far)

very impressive, you would not think he is 36 years old

Best player of Iran in the history of world cups, by far.

. I don't know many people in Pakistan who are willing to stay up half the night to watch the game live

the two times we hit the bar late in the game will haunt me lol

it wouldn't be a World Cup if we didn't miss a big chance or two near the end of an important match

Was this person by any chance the head referee in the VAR room?

Let's be fair, we don't deserve to advance. Our coach sucks, he's only there because he kisses the right behinds.

We shouldn't have played defensively against Egypt nearly the entire match. Egypt was much better on offense and had many issues in defense.

I do not know that how he came but for me he deployed his team well and used its abilities at maximum level woth strong willing moment.
You should be aware that your team traveled to the game on same day when match is played, frankly it is sensational that you did not lose every match under that conditions, those details on this football level are crucial.

No, this time we moved to Seattle 48 hours before the match, like every other team. The only match where we can't use that excuse.

Egypt was good in offense, but had a lot of problems in defense. Instead of using their weaknesses, we allowed Egypt to control the match and play exactly as they preferred to. Whenever we put pressure on their defense, we succeeded to create chances. How many times did we press them? Very few, but each time it was dangerous.

If we get eliminated, it was because of our poor coaching. We should've defeated New Zealand easily.

VAR has not been kind to us lol

VAR is just another high tech tool for those in favorable positions, more cruel then previous human errors in terms of sport justice.

our old squad doesn't have the capacity to press them constantly, only in moments

Egypt has a much stronger team than us, Marmoush and Salah are elite level players who we have no equivalent for

I completely disagree with both points.

1. Our team didn't look tired, they looked without a plan. We didn't even use all of our substitutions, if I'm not mistaken, but our team continued to play physically until the last minute.
2. And Egypt's strength against us was in offense, not in defense. Their defense had too many problems.

Yep, but before that you played two like i said.

Egypt has better players and lot of theirs are playing in europe which is NBA in terms of determining potential quality of football players and maybe their national league is stronger then iranian too, so draw against them is not failure even if you feel remorse because last minute canceled goal.
