Bloody hell, Eli Just is a hero now? Fair play, good on him. Still, Iran should've won that. Missed pen? Typical.
16 years! Finally back and we draw with Iran... mixed feelings but I'll take it. Just's goal was class eh
Wait, who scored? Eli who? Never heard of him but sounds like a legend now. 🤷
yeah nah he's got potential. hope he starts next match.
ffs so close to a win. Defence asleep for their second goal. Gotta tighten up or we're going home early.
mate our defence is a joke. worst I've seen in years.

yesss All Whites! So proud! That goal got me screaming in the library lol. Worth the late night study session.
same!! I woke up the whole flat haha. worth it
Can't believe we held Iran. They're ranked way higher. But still, 2-2 feels like a loss when you lead twice.
nah we played well. Iran are no mugs. take the point and move on.
Great effort lads! Proud of the team. Plenty of positives to build on. On to the next game! 🇳🇿
Iran were there for the taking. Should've buried that chance before half time. This'll come back to haunt us.
facts. absolute sitter missed. that's on the coach tbh.
Eli Just take a bow son! What a moment for NZ footy. Finally something to smile about after so long.
get stuffed. we'll smash the next two games.
