Infantino meminta timnas Iran untuk tetap fokus bertanding demi membawa kebanggaan bagi masyarakat dan pendukung mereka di seluruh dunia.

"In these two games you will make again everyone in the world proud of what you do. Thank you for being here.

It is also a big, big emotion. I know what you go through, I understand, but you are stronger than everything.

You send a strong message to the entire world. You united the whole stadium here, you united the whole stadium behind you, behind Team Melli.

You are sending such a strong message to the world. Let me say one more thing: this is just the beginning of the World Cup.

You are writing history, the whole world is watching you.

Continue to play with your heart, for your people, your families, for your fans and for everyone in the world that is falling in love with Team Melli.
