“Fitting that we save the best draw for last on this distinguished day defined by draws. We got a game between 2 teams that felt they had everything to prove and it played out like a draw should as both squads played with a ton of passion. New Zealand jumped on Iran early and took the lead thanks to a blast from Just thanks to some help from New Zealand’s veteran leader Chris Wood. Luckily Iran wasn’t gonna go down without a fight and they began to claw back into the game before eventually finding the equalizer in the 32nd minute. After some more back and forth, we reached halftime Believe it or not, I thought the 2nd half was even better, albeit slightly, which is still good considering the first half was great. It played out similarly to the first with New Zealand pouncing on Iranian mistakes, leading to another Just goal with some help from Wood. Just like before, Iran tied it, but took less time to do it this time. That meant we got even more back-and-forth football and close calls”
