Iran's friendly (March 2018)

[Sly]

Breaking News

Varzesh 3 is reporting that Iran will play Italy in a friendly match before the start of the WC in Russia

If this news is true and not a BS rumor, it will be a huge game for TM and a great warm up for both the Spain and Portugal matches.

🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Well, that's not sure at all! They are speculating in the article!

I prefer we play against teams such as Uruguay, Holland, Belgium instead of Italy. Italian barely take friendly matches serious, specially against inferior opponents.

Well Soltani also said today that we will play a couple of high profile European teams before the WC so who knows !!!!???

In Iran they love to make the opponent big. Examples: In 1986 Fajr Cup Iran media wrote how Romania team that came had brought many star players they did not mention that the team was Romania U21 The same with foreigners in Iran Football League the media makes them big where in fact they are players who are unknown and if played in big leagues were only average or below average players. Also other sports like two years ago a British team from Hong Kong came to Iran to play cricket match against two Iranian teams and they wrote "Tim-e matrah-e Engelestan" on a sign when they took team photo

So I would say that high profile European team will be probably Greece, Bosnia or Bulgaria
We all know that France, Germany, Belgium, England, Netherlands and Italy will not play us.

You definitely have a valid point

However I am hearing from many sources that Taj and Soltani are determined for TM to play either Italy or Holland

Before the WC.

I guess we will see

Sounds like a win-win to me. I’ve wanted to see us play Italy for as long as I can remember. Holland would be more beatable IMO

[greenguy4life]

Even if Italy don’t try in friendlies, end of the day, beggars can’t be choosers, if we get the opportunity to play them, we have to take it. I’m sure after their change of coach, FA president, inability to qualify for the WC, that they would want to show everyone that they are able to beat Iran. So it could be a good game.

[sarbaz]

I agree with you

This regime is composed of thugs and LIARS and this is how they rule Iran!! Nothing is the truth when it comes out of the mouth of a Hezbollahi!

May 28th against Turkey?

Most probably, I think some dates on the article are wrong.
They wrote that our farewell game would be on 7 Khordad (May 28th)
