Iran U17 defeat Netherlands to go through

Our U17 boys accomplished something that the senior side has failed to do in three tries; they made it to the second round of the U17 World Cup.

They defeated the European heavyweights Netherlands 1-0 to win the group. They now await the results of the other group matches to see who their opponents for the next round are. Their second round match is scheduled for November 5.

Our boys will go against one of the third place teams in groups A, B, or F, that are Germany, Brazil, or Uruguay in that order.
