Belgium's new draw, they didn't beat Iran either

The match between Belgium and Iran ended in a draw with a score of 0-0. Belgium dominated most of the game with constant attacks and control of the initiative, while Iran focused on a strong defensive strategy and launched quick counterattacks. In the 25th minute, Iran celebrated a goal by Taromi, but the referee disallowed it due to an offside position. Iran's goalkeeper, Beiranvand, made several outstanding interventions, and Belgium's keeper Courtois had to work hard to keep his team in the game. The situation became complicated for Belgium in the 66th minute when Ngoi received a red card after an error in defense. This allowed Iran to play more offensively, but their efforts did not result in any goals, leading to a goalless draw.
