Mizan News Agency – Dragan SkucicCoach National football team Iran about Iran lottery in world Cup And the game with the national team of the United States and England had statements that you can read an excerpt below:
* I am not interested in talking about Iran-US political relations. There are differences between the two countries, but we just want to think about football.
* Our goal is to cross the group. I always said we have a great team and we can get to the next stage. We can reach the round of 16, which is the first time for Iran.
* Britain will be Iran’s toughest opponent, but given the proximity of Iran and Qatar, this will be our home ground. It will be like playing in Azadi Stadium, so we will do our best to get to the next round from this group.
The head coach of the national football team also said in a separate statement published by the English SUN: “We do not play 15 games, we play one game and anything can happen in one game.”
* Maybe we would have preferred not to play England in the first game, but we have a lot of players who play in Europe and can fight with full respect for others, but they can fight to get through this group and get the quota.
* People will also try to say that we know the situation in Qatar better, and that would be an advantage. But our real advantage is that we have a lot of players who will be in the second or third World Cup. We are number one in Asia, but it does not matter. It is important that we prepare our best players; And I know that we have the spirit of the Iranian people. For these children, playing is very important for their country.
* There is no reason not to think we can beat England, because no! Remember that I am Croatian, so I know we can beat England.
* People can watch the game and say that Iran’s victory against England will be one of the biggest shocks in the history of the World Cup. Good. You can think so. Football is unpredictable.
