But Tehran is possibly the only capital in the world where there are no signs of the coming tournament.<\/p>\n<p>Restaurants are not decorated in national colors, there are no billboards portraying soccer stars, and nobody has tied the Iranian flag to the antennas of cars. On social media, which Iranians can only access using illegal software, Team Melli\u2019s coming games are hardly discussed.<\/p>\n<p>t\u2019s just that nobody is excited,\u201d said Arman Hosseinabadi, a 30-year-old accountant. \u201cIt is as if we are paralyzed.\u201d Soccer experts agree that the Iran team faces a complicated task in making it to the second round.<\/p>\n<p>The World Cup draw placed Iran, the top-ranked team from Asia, in a difficult group: with soccer power Argentina; Nigeria, the African champion; and Bosnia and Herzegovina, making its debut in the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlmost all their players play in the weak national league, instead of in big international teams,\u201d said Samy Adghirni, a correspondent for the Brazilian paper Folha de S.Paulo, who has been following the Iranian team for months. \u201cTheir coach publicly complains about the quality of his players. I have never seen anything like it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As with much in Iran involving money and influence, the national team is overrun with officials claiming to act in its best interest, but focusing on everything except improving the team.<\/p>\n<p>Its Portuguese coach, Carlos Quieroz, had several public disputes with the Football Federation of the Islamic Republic of Iran, complaining that the team was not getting enough money to prepare for the World Cup. In turn, the federation accused the coach of arranging lucrative warm-up matches and pocketing the money. Mr. Quieroz denied the allegations.<\/p>\n<p>Like the other qualifying teams, Iran received $1.5 million from FIFA, soccer\u2019s international governing body, but this was apparently insufficient to order enough team uniforms. Last month, the president of the Iranian federation said that players were not allowed to exchange their shirts with opponents after the games, a tradition in soccer.<\/p>\n<p>Citing bad weather, President Hassan Rouhani shunned a farewell ceremony here for the team last week. The event had to be moved from its original venue to a smaller one when only 3,000 fans showed up, far less than the expected 12,000.<\/p>\n<p>It is more than the daunting competition and the controversies surrounding Team Melli that keep the Iranians from warming to the World Cup. The authorities have been working hard to nix any soccer related excitement.<\/p>\n<p>Tehran\u2019s cinemas have been told by the police that they are not allowed to show World Cup matches to a mixed audience of men and women, \u201cout of respect for Islamic morals.\u201d A plan to show Iran\u2019s games on some of the large electronic billboards across the city was canceled, and on Wednesday, restaurant and coffee shop owners said they had been told by the Ministry of Islamic Guidance and Culture to refrain from decorating their establishments with the national flag or the colours of other countries.<\/p>\n<p>Until Monday, the day of the team\u2019s first game, nobody is expecting much enthusiasm. \u201cWe bought a large television set for our customers to watch the matches,\u201d said Hadis Bagheri, who runs a modest coffee shop. \u201cBut people are just not interested. Instead of talking about the World Cup they are hiding their faces behind mobile devices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, if Iran managed to beat Nigeria, everything might change.And with such low expectations the team has nothing to lose and may very well pull off an ambush. Its been done before just read Sun Tzu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: SuperSport.comWhen the Iranian national soccer team, called Team Melli qualified for the World Cup for the first time since 2006 by beating South Korea in a tense match; millions [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41851,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[175],"class_list":{"0":"post-16678","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-updated"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
