Expert forecasters hard at work!

One good practice game against Croatia and everyone is now forecasting “Good Results” for Team Melli.

TEHRAN, May 29 (ISNA)-Iran’s football federation training committee chief said Iran played a good game against Croatia.

“Iran shone in the first half and in many minutes of the second half; I think the team is getting arranged and applied its younger forces well,” said Freydon Moeeni.

“I’m sure Iran can gain good results in the Germany World Cup,” he added.

Some of these people are the very same folks who were predicting “embarrassing” showing, and “National Humiliation”!

TEHRAN, May 29 (ISNA)-Former Iranian National Football team coach regarding last night’s game between Iran and Croatia commented the team could become stronger through applying a few details.

“We must bear in mind that in held friendly games wining or losing is not important and that the only thing which matters is defining the fault and strengths of a team,” Mohammad Mayelikohan said to ISNA.

Mayelikohan also commented that the result of this game must not cause false pride or hope.

It’ll be good to see how everything will turn out against Bosnia & Herzegovina on Wednesday. Regardless, I think Iran will surprise everyone with the kind of football that is not expected from them.
