Pezeshkian: The national team players have put in all their effort

The Iranian national football team has put in all its effort in the World Cup.

“Elchi” reports, citing the “Fars” agency, that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated this.

“You saw what beautiful moments were created. The players worked with all their might and sang the Iranian anthem with pride,” he said.

According to him, Iran is currently the center of global attention:

“They speak of Iran and Iranians with respect, and this success is nothing but the result of unity and solidarity.”

It should be recalled that Iran’s last match took place against Belgium at the Los Angeles stadium, and the score remained 0-0. Prior to this, there was no winner in the match between Iran and New Zealand, and the result was not determined.

Egypt leads Group G, where the Islamic Republic’s team is placed, with 4 points, while Iran and Belgium have 2 points each, and New Zealand has 1 point. The Iranian national team will face Egypt in the final match. In general, the fate of this group will be decided in the third match, because if Belgium also defeats New Zealand, they will advance to the next stage.
