The way the Iranians are playing, I suppose the high point of Iranian
footballers will remain its 1998 World Cup victory over the American
team in the near future.

But it must be mentioned that Iran has not recovered from Ali Karimi's injury.

Abbas Kiarostami, the renowned film maker, said: "I hope that we'll
beat Angola at least" (at
<http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/060611/1/7ey3.html>).  I wished
that Iran had been able to get to the Round of 16 -- as Kiarostami
said, the Iranians "need something to cheer about" (at
<http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/060611/1/7ey3.html>).
