Prize list

The Iran took part in three final stages of world cup, without never exceeding the first turn.

For its first participation in 1978 in Argentina, taken along by the medium Ali Parvin, Iran holds in failure the Scotland but undergoes two clear defeats against the Peru and the Netherlands.

Twenty years later, at the time of the World French, with players like Ali Daei (legendary attacking with the 109 goals in national team!), Karim Bagheri and Mehdi Mahdavikia, it shows its progress. She inclines accuracy against the Yugoslavia (1-0) and the Germany (2-0) and especially she gains against the the United States (2-1) in a match in charge of symbols.

Polemic around the World cup of 2006

In addition, in 2006, with the same framework as in 1998 plus the player of the Bayern Ali Karimi, Iran brings back only one point of its voyage in Germany (tie against the Angola after two defeats against the Mexico and the Portugal). The Croatian trainer, Branko Ivankovic, which was with the head of the team, during this world cup, had been severely criticized by the media of the country, in particular with regard to the formation of Iran, during its first match against Mexico. Indeed, Ali Daei, old then 37 years, occupied the station of attacker.

On the continental level, Iran holds (with the Saudi Arabia and the Japan) the record of the number of victories in Coupe of Asia of the nations: three (consecutively) in 1968,1972 and 1976.
