Iran-Brazil R16. If we win we face either Serbia or Argentina.

Somehow round of R16 seems harder than R8 for us!

Basically we are out. Argentina finished behind us but get a better R16.

brazil ranked 5th cause of poor performance (3-2) vs Cuba. otherwise they would be much higher. a bit of bad luck but nobody to blame but ourselves, usa in 2nd rank got turkey, argentina finished 3rd and got serbia! no doubt serbia is good but we just smashed them 3-0! bullshit really

Yeah i can’t see us beat Brazil.
Either a 3-0 loss or a typical iranian ”heroic” 3-2 loss.

[peiman92]

We have lost the last 10 games against Brazil.

What kind of draw is this that you can play a team from your group as early as the QFs?

if we beat brazil
gurantee we go semifinal

[masoud nekounam]

We will lose to Brazil, our team is not up for it currently.

[Nokhodi]

Our team is mostly kids! They won't peak for another 4 years.
A good result against Brazil would be very surprising.

Props for Iran's team from Nimir

Well Slovenia & Germany who were in the same group play in R16 lol.

IFF is running the tournament?

The R16 determination makes no sense.

Why not just do what football WC does:
1A v 2B
2A v 1B
1C v 2D
2C v 1D
