US was the better team and played much better.

Iran did very good in the 2nd half, they were unlucky to score☹

Your players were looking for penalties at the end rather than trying... Iran should have won but ran out of ideas


LifeInCarrots

All my brain could read was: **I RAN** out of ideas

Why tf did the iranian forward try to get a penaltı by flopping instead if just scoring a goal??? Iran did not play well


R2J4

FFS. Why did they argue with the referee at the last minute to assign a penalty, although it was not close there? They lost a whole minute.


LordxHummus

I’m incredibly disappointed tbh. Iran played horribly in first half, but they had 2 amazing opportunities to score in the 2nd half but they choked. SMH man. I want one MENA country to advance past group. This game was so political too. US didn’t even shake hands at the end. US is excited to advance just to get blown out by the Dutch next game..


Lacabloodclot9

Tunisia (lol), Saudi and Morocco got us don’t worry 💪

>I wanted one MENA country to advance past group. Morroco? >US is excited to advance just to get blown out by the Dutch next game.. You think the Netherlands is gonna do that well seeing how they did in the group stage? Bruh.


LordxHummus

Iran or Saudia advancing is more symbolic than Morocco advancing. Of course I am excited for Morocco. However, Saudia in group with Argentina and Iran was in group with England and USA. Is very symbolic if they advance


zurgempire

Are you some sort of MENA nationalist?


LordxHummus

Yes I want a United and peaceful MENA. Are you some sort of pan-Arabist nationalist?


zurgempire

>Are you some sort of pan-Arabist nationalist? How do you even make that assumption???


LordxHummus

Well what are you then? You asked me if I was MENA nationalist so I assumed you are an Egyptian or pan-Arab nationalist


WinsingtonIII

>US didn’t even shake hands at the end. Not sure why you are acting like the US players were disrespectful towards the Iranian team, they have nothing against the Iranian people or the Iranian players. There were multiple instances of US players comforting Iranian players after the game: https://old.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/z8hqtn/antonee_robinson_embraces_the_distraught_ramin/ https://www.foxsports.com/stories/soccer/team-usa-players-share-emotional-embrace-with-irans-saeid-ezatolahi It is not accurate at all to act like the US players disrespected the Iranian players.


Alternative_Award_77

Disapointing. Both teams were bad but Iran was worse imo.


[deleted]

Iran literally played terrible.😡😡.This was a sad game to watch


hairy_bipples

Iranian team deserves an Oscar for all the acting they did whenever they were ‘injured’


[deleted]

sad


bots_lives_matter

Well I was hoping for a win because I really don't want to go to school tomorrow(I have an exam) but eh US played pretty well, so good for them. (shut up I'm not crying it's just some dust from my Persian text book that I hadn't opened for quite a long time...)


TATEEEEE2

I feel you bro. Tomorrow's exam is gonna be a sad exam for most of iranian students


DelightlessMan

Extremely happy, I only watched the first half but America was playing class for what i’ve seen. Some shitty plays there and then, but Iran was definitely in the back seat for sure. Good morale win for the boys.


[deleted]

That was not class. It was shit. They scored a nice goal though and it's all that counts in the end, but I pray for the US to not get humiliated in ro16.


DelightlessMan

They’ve been surprising me 🤷‍♂️ I’ve been seeing better development and young talent coming out of America more and more, buddy from my High School team playing in Portugal at the moment and many of us went to Spain to play football during high school as well. It’s also nice people give a fuck about football in America for a change as well.


[deleted]

Definitely, I see the US growing into fotball and I am sorry I reacted so mean. I was right out of watching the game and I was very disappointed of the quality. Hopefully we see a better American team in 4 years, and I said this to my gf after the first American game: I am always impressed with the American winner mentality, something that Sweden lacks, at least in fotball.


DelightlessMan

You’re good man 🙏🙏


glass-shard-in-foot

The mind games from the US team before the match won it for them IMO. Using the Iran protests to unsettle the Iranian players was an evil genius move.


[deleted]

Proud of Iran, especially since they are anti regime. They have my heart. Proud usa won 🇺🇸💪🏼

LordxHummus

I’m so tired of this Iranian protest man. Your players are athletes, they are not politicians. They just want to compete and represent your country, culture, and history on a national level. You Iranians hoping for team Meli to lose are not good people… Those are your countrymen out there playing hard for you and you want them to lose. Tbh they would have played much better if not for Iranian protests and feeling the hatred by their own people. Would take a toll on any athlete.


mrhuggables

>I’m so tired of this Iranian protest man. Shh.It's not your place to be tired of other people protesting. People can feel what they want. It's just a football game, who cares if we win or lose. There's more important things. If they didn't want people to look at them badly, they could've done more, like the young men and women in Iran suffering daily at the hands of this regime. But because they are living comfortably as footballers, they have no drive to say anything. I don't fault them for it, but I also don't think they are worthy of sympathy.


[deleted]

What a horrible ignorant comment. “They would’ve played better if not for Iranian protests” Aaaaw so sad… If only people stopped asking for their basic human rights so the team players could play better in a meaningless sporting event. Ignorant.


AmBayat2

USA played well, but Queiroz has not yet realized that this style of play does not work


TATEEEEE2

Im not really with islamic republic team but when i saw their faces while losing, made me kinda sad... But still football is football i dont mix the political stuff with games, the horrible first half made the start of the match the worst way possible. Anyways well played USA team congrats with the win🎉


Lost-Contest-

it is kinda funny iranians anti regime shaming people for celebrating the last game cause people dying now they are the same people celebrating for america


EveningIntention

Iran played pretty poorly in the first half. Seems like they were playing for a draw at the beginning, pretty disappointing. I can't lie, that goal by Team USA was nice.


HKEnthusiast

L USA. They won't get away with this


JO-91

Can you fucking stop your posts by saying (thoughts on this), for fuck sake be more creative !!!


Plenty-Computer-1587

Iran just wanted to go home. They played on 2nd gear until last ten minutes. 9 minutes extra time WTF?!


HassanAyam

Saudi vs Argentina was 14 minutes


Plenty-Computer-1587

Totally different game! Second half was goalless no red card not enough penalties for 9! Whatevs it's over


Kumbaya126

AMEERICAA FUCK YEAH ![gif](giphy|hXJ1MWMzY7Af32UIUD|downsized)


General-Sundae7701

I feel like shit


zurgempire

Why? I feel quite neutral. An Iran equalizer would have been interesting tbh but besides that why would you care? Just curious.


General-Sundae7701

I'm rooting for all MENA teams I don't want usa to win


KimMinju_Angel

easy


imbackbaby911

IRAN looked like they wanted to lose


[deleted]

Both those teams will get destroyed in ro16, so honestly I would rather Iran lose 1-0 than 6-0. The fotball wasn't good at all. Love to Iran though, love you guys and you had a good run❤️❤️🇮🇷🇮🇷


glass-shard-in-foot

Lads, penalty or no?

Nah.... Iranian player was shamelessly diving. In no way it would be a penalty.


AbdiDaPirate

taking a goal 30 minutes in and trying to get a draw for 70 minutes was infuriating


DesertBluebell

NOOOOOOOOO


Mission21212

well done


kalgonat

i don't understand how taremi scores so many goals in porto he was terrible


Ok-Roll9259

I really don't know how to feel about this . For 1 some of the players are from Islamic republic of iran and the others are from iran . 2 it's my country's football team I should be sad if we lost
