Wales-Iran, the likely lineups
Likely lineups
Filed the first day of the group stage, it is already time for the second round: opening the dances on Friday, Nov. 25, are Wales and Iran, engaged at 11 a.m. Italian time. The Dragons are looking for a win after the draw with the United States. Same val for Iran, which comes from the drubbing with England (2-6).
Page is intent on fielding the same 11 proposed with the United States with only one change: Moore replacing Wilson in the center of the attack, with Bale and James on his sides. Confirmed in the middle of the field Ramsey assisted by Ampadu who should grit his teeth and play from the first minute.
Queiroz must do without Beiravand, out due to the bad injury suffered with England: in his place plays Hosseini. In attack, Taremi is untouched but his partner changes: Azmoun should play with Jahanbakhsh on the bench, ready to take over in the game. Another change is Ezatolahi in place of Karimi.
Likely lineups.
