THE MATCH
Crazy final at Al Rayyan: after an assaulting restart, two hit woodwork and the first red of Qatar 2022, theIran beat him 2-0 Wales and remains fully in the running for the round of 16. The first half was devoid of emotion: the only real highlight was Gholizadeh’s goal disallowed for offside following an assist from Azmoun in the 16th minute. The second half was much more intense: within 20 seconds, Queiroz’s team hit two posts, first with Azmon then gholizadeh, with Hennessy who finds Azmoun’s header in his hands. Halfway through the second half, however, the goalkeeper had to perform a true miracle to clear Ezatolahi’s low shot from the net.
In the 86th minute, however, the Wales goalkeeper intervenes late and with his leg high on Taremi, ready to take the ball forward and score from the edge: after the Var, the referee Escobar draws the first red card of Qatar 2022, with Page forced to insert Ward in place of ex Juve Ramsey. With numerical superiority, Torabi skims the crossroads with his right from the edge. Precisely in the final, Iran reaped what was sown: in the 98th minute, Cheshmiwho came on in the 77th minute for Noorollahi, found the bottom corner with a precise right from the edge. Three minutes later, the game ends with a counterattack perfected by Taremi and finalized by in Rezaiawho signs the final 2-0.
