Statements - Mehdi Taremi (Iran player)
"Iranians are a football-obsessed people and that is reflected in their support for the national team. They love almost all sports, but soccer has a special place in their hearts. Soccer is a very important part of many Iranians' lives and arouses a lot of emotions. When we win it brightens their week and if we lose it's the other way around, it ruins it for them."
"There's no doubt that you feel something special when your country qualifies, and we did our country proud. We are very proud to be one of those 32 teams. We gave everything we had to qualify. For any footballer, whoever he is, to represent his country at the World Cup is the greatest honor there is."
"Everyone who plays soccer has great memories of this tournament, it's as simple as that. Most kids love watching and playing soccer. They may end up doing something unrelated or playing another sport, but their love of soccer will never leave them. It happens to everyone, even those who didn't particularly like it as children. The World Cup is the biggest soccer tournament and all the big stars take part in it. Seeing them in action fills one with awe and makes one dream of one day playing on the biggest stage of all."
Statements - Gareth Bale (Wales player)
"It's a spectacular feeling. As a little boy I dreamed of seeing Wales in a World Cup. Hopefully it will be a fun time for us."
"I think France 1998 was my first World Cup memory. Watching this tournament has always been a bit disappointing for me because I didn't get to see Wales play. To be part of it now is unbelievable. Everyone has been dreaming about it for a long time. Also, this serves to inspire more kids in our country to play soccer and to have a great generation in the future to keep qualifying."
"The kids are ready. We don't need to encourage them. We have a game plan with a lot of analysis behind it for the first game and they are ready. They've been waiting for this moment for a long time. It's been a difficult process to be here and they've shown they can handle the emotions; tomorrow will be no different."
Key player - Iran
The presence of Mehdi Taremi stands out in Iran. The 30-year-old striker, who currently plays for FC Porto, is going through a great moment at the moment, being determinant not only with his club, but also scoring goals for his national team, with which he scored both goals in the previous match against England. In total, he has scored 30 goals in 59 games for the Iranian national team.
Key player - Wales
In Wales, the presence of Gareth Bale stands out. The 33-year-old midfielder, who currently plays for Los Angeles FC of the MLS, is in an unbeatable moment, after being one of the key players in the title won by his club recently and also being in charge of his country to score again in a World Cup. In total, he has 41 goals in 106 games for his national team.
Wales vs Iran history
These two teams have met once in history. On April 18, 1978, they met at the Aryamehr Stadium and the Welsh defeated the Iranians by the narrowest of margins with a goal by Philip Dwyer.
Squad List - Iran
Squad List - Wales
Iran
After being overwhelmed by England 6-2, Iran must win its two remaining matches to qualify for the next round of the World Cup. Carlos Queiroz's team have turned the page on their horrendous debut in the tournament and will try to turn the situation around in order to reach the final matchday with a chance.
Wales
Wales drew 1-1 in their first World Cup match in 36 years. The team led on the field by Gareth Bale managed to rescue a point precisely with a goal by its captain against the United States. The result helps them to come into this match as favorites, looking to emerge as one of the qualifiers to the next round in the group.
