Of course people will reference the Argentina match (and for many reasons). The same coaches and pundits that come out and say that CQ has no faith in our players were caught on live TV making fun of this team and stating that they have zero chance against Argentina. In contrast, the same coach who apparently has no faith in our players had them play one of the best matches in our country's history. Yes we lost but we were not undeserving of a victory or draw either.
One other point in relation to 'results'. Iran has never qualified for the World Cup twice in succession. In fact, in all these years, we've only qualified for the World Cup four times. Should CQ at the very least qualify us to the 2018 World Cup, it will be the most consistent stretch that we've had at the national team level post-revolution.
