Iran - Palestine; Finally it's the youth's turn!
The Iranian soccer team, which traveled to Basra in Iraq to hold the Fifadi Games in November, will face Palestine in the first game today (Saturday - Iran time) at 6:30 p.m.
Now that the average age of the team has decreased, the technical team is expected to continue this process and rely on young players who will provide the basis for their presence and standing in the team. There is no doubt that the next two games are a good opportunity for these players to show their abilities to Kalnoi and try to continue being in the team.
The match against Palestine on paper should not be a particularly difficult game for Kalnawi's students, but experience has shown that whenever the team underestimates its opponents, it gets into trouble. Iran and Palestine have faced each other seven times so far, Iran's share was 4 wins and 3 games ended in a draw. The last confrontation between the two teams began with the Asian Cup in 2023, when Iran won the first match in the group stage under the leadership of Jalanoui with a score of 4:1.
