Korea scored the first goal in 44 years at Azadi Stadium, which is called the grave of the visiting team.



In the 3rd minute of the second half, captain Son Heung-min broke through the castle.



He quickly dug into the back space and finished with his right foot after receiving the ball stabbed by Lee Jae-sung.



Following the winning goal against Syria, he scored two goals in a row and roared vigorously.



The presence of defender Kim Min-jae was also dazzling.



In strength and speed, he proudly faced and supported the Iranian strikers, and he also opened the door to the attack by advancing without hesitation with his individual skills.



However, at the altitude of 1,200 meters above sea level, the players' stamina gradually declined, and the opponent's shot hit the goal post and passed the dizzying crisis, but in the 31st minute of the second half, goalkeeper Kim Seung-gyu's unfortunate judgment mistake overlapped and the tie was allowed.



There were more defenders, but he hesitated and missed Jahanbachsi.



Coach Bento pulled out a replacement card belatedly, but the 1-1 balance could not be broken as Na Sang-ho's last shot was caught by the keeper.



[Son Heung-min / Soccer Team Captain: It's really sad that we couldn't win. But we did our best, and so is Iran. It was a tough match for both teams.]



Manager Bento, who maintained second place with a two-point gap with Iran, responded with satisfaction.



[Bento / Soccer Team Manager: The result was fair.

We added one point to get 8 points, and

we

are going in a good direction.]

Lebanon, the weakest member of our group, advanced to the third place by defeating Syria, and the United Arab Emirates, which will face us next month, has been pushed to fourth place by a draw with Iraq. It happened.



Just before the end, the decisive volley shot was declared as a goal as a result of the video review, resulting in a tearful draw.
