Iran vs Spain: Twitter reacts as Costa’s goal sends them joint-top with Portugal
Group B might get interesting. Maybe. Probably not.
No one giving Iran a chance here, but this World Cup has been a tournament of underdogs
My mom is watching footage of the Iranians celebrating their win against Morocco. She said, "look how happy they are, that won't last long." 😂😂🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🤞🏻🤞🏻 #WorldCup

Huge sigh of relief for Spain there
WHAT DRAMA! #IRN smash in an equaliser, they celebrate like crazy but the referee chalks it off for offside. Wow #WorldCup #ESP
