FIFA World Cup Group G Belgium vs Iran
Full-time
Belgium 0 0 Iran
Poor game.
Belgium had 90% possession but were poor in front of goal.
A wreckless challenge saw them down to ten men after N'goy sent off with 30 minutes still to play.
Iran for their part had difficulty stringing 3 passes together and were rarely a threat in front of goal.
However their Goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand performed heroics. Often on his own goalline, and may have given Iran their first realistic opportunity to advance beyond the group stage in their history.
