World Cup qualifiers: Iran 1-0 UAE

In the Asian World Cup qualifiers, Mehdi Taremi’s solitary goal has led Iran to a 1-nil away win against the United Arab Emirates.  

The Porto striker got in on the act in the 70th minute, when he completed a 1-2 with Sardar Azmoun before beating the onrushing goalkeeper with a first-time shot.

Taremi then won a late penalty for Team Melli, but Azmoun couldn’t convert it, as the 1-nil stood for good. The result puts Iran back on top of group A, with 3 wins out of 3 matches, without conceding a single goal.
