    Penalty for Iran on the 10th minute, Taremi shoots at Shobeir's left
    corner. The keeper dives the correct way and stops it. After a brief VAR analysis for possible encroaching, the save stands.

    But Iran struck back immediately after that, Mohammadi received the ball
    in the box free of markers and forced a brilliant save from Shobeir, but Rezaeian fires in the rebound.

    VAR Robots spare New Zealand from a penalty just before the first half
    ad break. A Belgian player shot it at a New Zealand's defender closed
    arm and the referee had pointed to the spot, going back on his call upon review.

    Lots of action in the end: as Belgium scored the fifth over New Zealand,
    Iran scored what seemed to be a dramatic comeback a couple of minutes
    into injury time. However, VAR Robots spotted Khalilzaded fractionally offsides (by half of his right foot, almost) and the goal was called
    off. Iran kept up the pressure and almost scored twice: once the ball
    was saved, last gasp, by an Egyptian defender for a corner kick; and,
    from that corner, a header on the bar and out.

    Intense and entertaining match, IMHO. Now Iran has to wait for
    tomorrow's results. Belgium plays a third-placed team yet to be
    determined, while Egypt faces Australia on the next round.

    Yes, crazy ending. 2 minutes of absolute elation for Iran turned into
    total despair. This will be one of the moments of the WC.

    As mentioned previously in the thread, Senegal is through. That's
    seven CAF teams through to R32 (RSA, MOR, CIV, CPV, SEN, EGY and GHA),
    with two more who could join them tomorrow (COD and ALG). Only Tunisia
    stunk, and they stunk badly.

    On the other hand, AFC is likely just 2 of 9 (JPN and AUS).
