British 2022 World Cup Review Vs Iran: The Three Lions Ghosted Bad Notes
JAKARTA - The England national team will meet Iran in the 2022 World Cup Group B match on Monday, November 21 at 20.00 WIB. Ahead of the meeting at the Khalifa International Stadium, the Three Lions are clearly the favorite.
However, Gareth Southgate's troops should not be happy. Moreover, they were faced with a bad record ahead of the match against Iran.
The runner-up of EURO 2020 has never won in its last five matches. That's what made Harry Kane and his friends relegated from UEFA Nations League A.
Dari lima laga yang dijalani, timnas Inggris merengkuh tiga hasil seri dan sisanya kalah. Semua laga itu terjadi dalam kompetisi UEFA Nations League.
Getting rid of poor records, England should be able to prove their performances can be even better. Against Iran, their squad is already filled with quality players such as Harry Maguire, Kieran Tripper, Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane, to Bukayo Saka.
For both teams, tonight's match is the first meeting that could bring many surprises. But for Iran, facing a well-known team like England, will not discourage them.
Carlos Queiroz's men have even more flashy capital than the Three Lions. Team Melli showed promising play in their last three trials.
Iran beat Uruguay 1-0 through Mehdi Taremi's single goal. In addition, they also drew 1-1 with Senegal and won 1-0 against Nicaragua.
Of the last 21 matches played in various competitions, Iran has also managed to gain a good record because it only lost twice. With that capital, Iran should be able to find a chance to win in the midst of the Three Lions' recent bad record.
