The success will be well within Iran’s reach if Team Melli and fans supporting the team show unity and solidarity with each other.
Iran kicked off the World Cup 2022 tournament in Qatar with a 6-2 loss to England. The heavy defeat caused sorrow to the fans in Qatar and disappointed millions of supporters inside Iran.
However, a 2-0 victory against Wales on November 25 was a stunning comeback to the tournament for Carlos Queiroz's players.
The victory came on the background of continued support offered by Iranians despite the loss to England. The players also showed a great deal of resolve and enthusiasm in their second match and revived expectations for a first-ever qualification from the World Cup group stage for Iran.
Reports from Doha and from across Iran suggest football fans have become more united in their support for Team Melli. Experts say that unity would be key to Iran’s success in its final group B match against the United States.
The face-off against the US will be held on November 29 at 22:00 p.m. Qatar time in Al Thumama Stadium.
