🧠 Match Summary

vs

Elijah Just put New Zealand ahead as early as the seventh minute in Los Angeles, and the All Whites ultimately left SoFi Stadium with a hard-earned 2-2 draw against Iran on Matchday 5 of Group G. Just struck again in the 54th minute to restore New Zealand's lead after Ramin Rezaeian had levelled for Iran in the 32nd, but Mohammad Mohebbi equalised for the second time in the 64th to ensure the spoils were shared.

New Zealand edged possession at 52% and kept Iran's goalkeeper busier, registering eight shots on target to Iran's four, while the Iranians attempted more overall with 17 shots to 14. César Arturo Ramos officiated a tense but largely controlled contest, issuing just one yellow card as both sides secured a point that keeps the group wide open.
