Can you believe it? Iran had hardly had a shot on target in the second half and they come away from that game with a win. Bouhaddouz is inconsolable as he leaves the pitch in tears. Iran fought hard all through the game and looked ready to settle for a draw when they got the goal.
Iran win a free kick on the far side of Morocco's penalty area. The free kick is fired at the near postand Bouhaddouzwho was looking to clear it only manages to send a bullet header past his own keeper.
(Bouhaddouz OG)
Yellow!Tensions are rising.Ansarifard goes in late on the tackle and concedes a foul onZiyech. The Morocco bench who were close to that tackle are infuriated and the referee is forced to calm things down.
For all the numerous breaks in the game 6 minutes have been added on. Both teams seem more interested in not losing the game now as they sit back and absorb the pressure.
The ball is launched into the Iranian penalty area and Bouhaddouz rises high and heads the ball back to Ziyach who fires in a first-time volley but it's blocked by the sea of Iranian players.
Jahanbakhsh- out ; Ghoddos - in
Yet another break in play and it's Jahanbakhshthis time who takes to ground. This isn't good for Iran as he signals to the bench. He has to be carried off the field as Ghoddosis called up to replace him.
Harit- out ; Da Costa - in
Belhandadoes brilliantly as he knocks the ball into the path of Ziyach who connects beautifully with a half-volley. The Iranian keeper Beiranvandshowed some great reflexes as he got down quickly on his right and parried the shot away. That was the closest Morocco have got to scoring in this half.
Yet another break in play as Omid is now down clutching his ribcage again. He won't be able to continue either and Iran are forced to make a substitution.
N Amrabat- out ; S Amrabat- in
