Iran Consolidates Place with Win against Syria: FIFA
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran consolidated its place in Group A of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification with a 3-0 win over Syria.
Iran furthered distancing itself from the chasing pack with four games left, FIFA.com wrote.
Leading third-placed United Arab Emirates by 10 points, Iran can seal early qualification with three games to spare if it defeats Iraq in the next outing in January and the other results also go its way.
Team Melli had also earned a dramatic 2-1 win over Lebanon last week.
