Mexico means business!

Despite what you may think, Mexico is not taking Iran for granted. Their players and coaches have said that repeatedly. You can also bet on the fact that they will be all business the moment the starting whistle blows.

I think the first 10 minutes of the game will be very important. Iran will be under a lot of pressure. If the boys withstand it, then they have a chance to turn it around.

I believe Iran also should start an attacking game when the whistle blows. I hope they don’t wait until Mexico scores. They will not be able to withstand Mexico (or any other team in this level) by only defensive play. The best defense is offense.

It’s gonna depend on the number of Iranian and Mexican fans at the game! Whomever has the most fans in the stadium is going to push harder in the first 15min. I hope Iranians are going to make a lot of noise cause all the home games in Iran start with us attacking for the first 10-15 min!
