Nope. The Iranian away kit for this year was made by Nike.\n\nTake a look here:\n\nhttp://shop.football.co.uk/iran-away-05-06.html\n\nUsually, national shirts are released in alternate years. As Puma have made the home shirt for the 06/07 period, I think it's safe to assume that they will be making the away shirt for the 07/08 period.

In my opinion they have very slim chances of even going to the playoffs, considering their group. Mexico and Portugal are 2 of the most strongest soccer nations in the planet and considering only the first 2 of each group go to the playoff stage, Iran probably will be fighting for the 3rd position. They are the underdogs, but in this case, I don't think there is much to do.

It's just three matches, anything can happen. In 2002, for example, Denmark and Senegal left France behind... To tell the truth I haven't had the chance to watch the Iran team many times, so I don't really know what to expect from them, but I'm hoping for the best. It would be nice to have them among the top 16.

I think they can.\nI don't think Portugal can do well in World Cup.\nmexico isn't that great either, Iran can gain atleast 2 points in those games.\nA win in one of those games will have Iran advancing.\nA win over Angola isn't going to be that hard.

Some dodgy defending and mis-understanding between goalkeeper and defender!\nThat was Iran's 'secret weapon'.

Let me help.  I received this info this morning: \n\n"TEHRAN, Iran — Iran has said it would offer cash incentives to travel agencies to encourage Western tourists to visit the country, giving a premium for Americans, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported Tuesday.\nThe proposal is Iran's latest bid to reach out to ordinary Americans in an attempt by the Islamic Republic's political leadership to show that its quarrel is with the U.S. administration — not U.S. citizens.\n\nIt came as the United Nations Security Council deliberates a draft resolution that would impose sanctions on Iran for its disputed nuclear program.\n\n"Iran's tourism department will pay $20 per person to those who attract European or American tourists to the country," the agency quoted Mohammed Sharif Malakzadeh, deputy head of the department, as saying.\n\nVisitors from other countries would earn travel agents $10 a tourist, Malakzadeh said."\n\nIf you could persuade your travel agent to split this powerful financial incentive with you, I'm sure that it would go a long way to helping pay for the trip!

The Iran national football team is the national team of Iran and is controlled by the Islamic Republic of Iran Football Federation and is one of the strongest teams in Asia. Iran play their home games in the massive Azadi (Freedom) Stadium which was built in the mid 1970s with a capacity of over 100,000. Iran is also known as Team Melli.\n\nIran won the Asian Cup three times in a row (1968, 1972, 1976) and have finished third four times. In 1978, Iran made its first appearance in the World Cup and lost two of their three group stage games against the Netherlands and Peru. However, they managed to create a shocker by drawing against the famous Scotland side 1-1 on a late Iraj Danaeifard goal.\n\nAfter the 1979 Revolution, football was somewhat neglected and cast aside during the mid 1980s due to internal unrest and the Iran-Iraq War although rumors saying that Iran didn't play football during that time are untrue. Football managed to make its revival in the early 1990s with new talent like Ali Daei, Mehdi Mahdavikia, Khodadad Azizi and Karim Bagheri. In November 1997, Iran qualified for the 1998 World Cup after beating Australia in a controversial playoff series. Both games finished undecided, but Iran qualified due to the away goals rule. Iran held Australia to a 1-1 draw at home, and a 2-2 draw in Melbourne. Because Iran scored more away goals than Australia they qualified for the 1998 World Cup. Iran recorded their first win in the World Cup final tournament in 1998, 2-1 against the USA.\n\nThis Iran vs USA World Cup match was preheated with much excitement on both sides because of the countries political stance on each other after the Revolution in Iran. However, in an act of defiance against all forms of hatred or politics in sports both sides took ceremonial pictures embracing each other and gave each other gifts and flowers before kickoff.\n\nThe number of "footy fanatics" in Iran has increased exponentially in the last two decades. Football can be seen everywhere in Iran. Kids playing football in narrow streets is a very common sight, particularly south and east of Tehran. This style of football named "gol-koocheak" ("small-net") is normally played with the signature purple or red and white balls sold almost in every Iranian "dokoon" or convenience store. Street football is usually played with "dolayeh" ("two-layered") or "selayeh" (triple-layered) plastic balls, because the single rubber ball alone is hard to control. One plastic ball is cut and the other is forced into its hard plastic shell to make a "dolayeh" plastic ball. Because street football is played in small, closed areas (and often with very small nets) children who play football in Iran's streets and similarly Iranian footballers are technically gifted.\n\nOn June 8, 2005, Iran together with Japan became the first country to qualify for the 2006 World Cup making it Iran's 3rd appearance on the world stage of football. The qualification round both in 2001 and 2004-05 resulted in mass celebrations, hysteria and rioting causing internal chaos and unrest between youth and government officials.\n\nIran are, as of 2006, ranked within the Top 20 of the FIFA World Rankings with its current ranking at #19.

I am not expecting too much from Iran. \nThey might not make it to the next round.
