Nice to see that Iran women have the freedom to play football. Power to the women !! 😃😍🥰

[@SportArenaYT]

@dhanyrafael Yes, but sadly they forced to play with hijab by government 😤

[@shadow.walker7]

Wtf are you saying 😂 They always had freedom to play football You don't need to speak when you don't know anything

[@dhanyrafael]

Iran women are so beautiful, they should be allowed to show their beauty. Hopefully things will change faster for the better.@@SportArenaYT

I think playing with those hijabs and long legged pants must be a handicap for Iranian players. They must sweat more under those heavy uniforms that prevent the sweat from drying and, on the contrary, moisten the fabric of the uniforms.

i agree

Great by Iranian women to stand up like this against australia. I think Iranian ladies will improve and play better and better pretty soon💪🇮🇷

Go girls !! Go Kerr !!

[@abtinmoaz]

keep in mind this is the same team that lost to china 7-0.that was a really good performance for iran!

[@SportArenaYT]

@abtinmoaz From result perspective yes, it was a great achievement for Iran, even we considering Australia played with their second team in first half. However from performance point of view, that was a disaster for Iran with only 189 passes and 45% pass accuracy. It means less than 90 completed passes! These girls have a long way to go in Asia but there is lots of talented girls out there also. Wishing all the bests for Iran Women's Football.
