Queiroz considers the match with England “good training”.

The ex-mentor of “Real” found a positive side of the sharp defeat. “It was a good training for us, it will help us prepare better for the next games. It’s not the result we were hoping for, we’re relying on the results against Wales and the United States,” Queiroz said, according to Marca.

Rebuke fans who do not support the team

“With all the problems the players have, it’s very difficult to focus. But we will definitely come back stronger. To be clear, we don’t need fans who support the team only when it wins, they can stay at home,” concluded the coach of Iran.

Iran is in Group B at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar along with England, USA and Wales.
