Late drama as Iran beats Wales 2-0 in the heat of Al Rayyan

Iran should have scored in the 51st minute, Azmoun hitting the near post after being slipped through on goal; the ball fell to Gholzadeh, who cut inside and hit a left foot shot against the other post, and when the rebound fell to Azmoun, he could only head straight at a grateful Hennessey.
Wales breathed again, and Page brought on Brennan Johnson and Dan James for Wilson and Connor Roberts to refresh his side while Karim Ansarifard replaced the tiring Azmoun for Iran.
