They were also unfortunate to have a would-be winning goal ruled out for offside in each of their first two games.Taremi will be desperate to score, having now rattled the post and had a terrific short free-kick chalked off, but Iran won't mind one jot if his industry continues to allow 36-year-old defender Ramin Rezaeian, of all people, to keep sneaking in unseen.Egypt's Salah-inspired 3-1 victory over New Zealand was their first at a World Cup, and came at the ninth time of asking. The ex-Liverpool icon scored one and laid on another, and fans of a certain vintage will have got a kick out of seeing the names Ziko and Trezeguet on the scoresheet.The seven-time African champions have looked solid if not spectacular so far, but it's been a huge improvement over their recent AFCON showings, and they're in a great position to go through as group winners.Egypt vs Iran: Group GFourFourTwo's predictionEgypt 2-1 IranFourFourTwo predicts that the Pharaohs will just about edge an entertaining affair in Seattle.DisclaimerWe test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses.
