Iran wait on FIFA World Cup progress after late goal disallowed in Egypt draw

Iran's hopes of advancing to the World Cup knockout stage hang in the balance after a tense 1-1 draw against Egypt, where a potential last-minute winner was controversially disallowed for offside. Egypt, already assured of their place in the next round, took an early lead with Mahmoud Saber's goal, only for Ramin Rezaeian to equalize shortly after. The result leaves Iran in a precarious position, relying on other matches' outcomes to determine their World Cup fate, highlighting the intense competition and the fine margins that can make or break a team's tournament journey.
