“Iran are an aggressive side and our performance wasn’t up to our usual standard. The heat was definitely a factor that played a part. I think I did well on a personal level. In the first half I was just missing a goal, which eventually came in the second half. I dedicate this goal to my family that came from Milan to watch me play.”
