FIFA: Brazilians Will Not Forget Iran Futsal Keeper Samimi
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Brazilian futsal players are unlikely to forget the name of Iran goalkeeper Alireza Samimi in a hurry.
Whether he was saving volleys, one-on-ones or long-range shots, the Iranian goalkeeper put in one of the greatest performances of his career, precipitating the historic elimination of the five-time world futsal champion, fifa.com wrote.
Clearly growing in stature as the tournament progresses, Samimi will be keen to keep another set of Paraguayan forwards early Sunday.
Paraguay operates on enthusiasm and physical strength, backed up by solid technique.
Iran, meanwhile, rely more on playing as a unit, and on the experience and confidence that come with winning 11 continental championships.
