Summary
Ricardo Quaresma’s lovely strike just before halftime and Karim Ansarifard’s injury time penalty were enough to share the spoils between Iran and Portugal in their final Group B World Cup match played at the Mordovia Arena in Russia. Quaresma struck on 45 minutes to give Portugal the lead when the Iranians were looking to go into the half time break at par. Iran, coached by former Portugal and Real Madrid Coach, Carlos Queiroz created a few anxious moments – including an ignored penalty appeal – for the the Selecção das Quinas but could not make it count. Not until a late penalty ruled by VAR offered Iran a lifeline in injury time.
Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty early in the second half.
