The match against Palestine is set to be played in Tehran on December 28, and will follow a raft of games Iran, who will be vying to win a fourth AFC Asian Cup title next year, have arranged during a ten-day training camp in South Africa. “We will play Palestine on December 28 in Tehran. Iran are also going to play friendlies against Tanzania, Guatemala and South Africa in the training camp,” head coach Carlos Queiroz revealed to reporters. Team Melli will also play Iraq on January 4, a week before opening their AFC Asian Cup Group C opener against Bahrain in Melbourne. Qatar and the United Arab Emirates will then be their opponents on January 15 and 19 respectively.
