Gianlu33 3,570 Posted May 6, 2017 #31 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Just now, MHSN said: Iran missed 4 penalties in a row in shoot-out. the first one was enough to send them to the final but Akbari missed that, from then our GK Hosseini saved us twice but couldn't save the 6th penalty. he also saved a penalty during the match, making it 4 saves out of 7. considering the fact Iran was leading 1-0 for most of the match that was really heartbreaking. btw choosing the reserve GK (who didn't play a single minute) for taking the decisive penalty was a dumb mistake but that happens. Well, some GK are specialize in paring the rigors, maybe Hosseini is one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hosseini is great GK overall, not only in penalties , he is probably Iran's best player (alongside Ahmadzadeh) he saved few shots during the match as well. and had some magical saves in extra time against Switzerland. he is a bit injured here that's why they use the reserve GK (Behzadpour) for half of the match, even though today Hosseini played the whole match, still they used Behzadpour for taking the last penalty which he missed.

Henry_Leon 1,225 Posted May 6, 2017 #34 Share Posted May 6, 2017 played a bad second period, and overcome us 5-0 ..... Impossible a come back in 3rd P Pity for final score but however, they are a strong team, and deserved the Final. Now hope we forgot this match and play good for the bronze medal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,174 Posted May 7, 2017 #35 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) Bronze medal I think that was their best game in the whole tournament against a very strong team, our guys missed A LOT of chances in 3rd period, the gap could be bigger. this is only our 2nd medal in FIFA competitions (after Futsal bronze last year) btw that was also the first ever medal for the Asian teams. hard luck for Italy, Edited May 7, 2017 by MHSN mrv86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry_Leon 1,225 Posted May 7, 2017 #38 Share Posted May 7, 2017 The strongest team won: deserved!!! for the third edition in a row reach semifinals, and is runner-up for the second time. Congratulations for 3° place, played a good tournament; won also the award for best player AHMADZADEH, and best goalkeeper HOSSEINI. Pity played awful match also the small-final; only our "trophy" is for GORI top scorer with 17 goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vinipereira 3,047 Posted August 16, 2021 #39 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Before the Men's World Cup in Russia, there was a women's Intercontinental Cup at the same venue (probably there's not enough teams to have a WC of their own). Even after losing the third match, Brazil was the champion. Standings: 1 2 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
