Just a few points coming to my mind, please complete the list:
- Best World Cup result with 4 points
- Least goals conceded in a World Cup with 2, best so far 5 in 1998
- Best goal difference in a World Cup +-0, best so far -3 in 1998
- Hajsafi joins Mahdavikia and Teymourian as third Iranian player with 6 World Cup caps
- Shojaei becomes the first Iranian player to feature in 3 World Cups
- Iran snatching a point from a reigning European champion, who are 4th in FIFA ranking too
