World Cup History

Iran is Asia's most successful World Cup nation in recent decades, qualifying for six tournaments including five consecutive (1998, 2006, 2014, 2018, 2022). Team Melli has never advanced past the group stage but consistently competes well.

Iran won the 1998 World Cup match against USA 2-1, one of the most politically charged matches in history. They've produced talented players like Ali Daei, Mehdi Mahdavikia, and Sardar Azmoun.

Known for their disciplined defensive organization and technical skill, Iran has dominated Asian football with three AFC Asian Cup titles.
