To me Iran is the best team in Asia. They were really good in the WC. Unfortunately had to face Portugal and Spain in the group stages even then they weren't humiliated. Won against Morocco, Drew against Portugal and then lost just 1-0 against Spain. I don't wanna talk politics or go off topic but Iran gets sanctioned a lot by US and it's allies but despite that they don't stop achieving. Even when they beat us in Kabaddi (womens) at Asian Games in 2018 which India were favourites to win i realised this nation has crazy ambitions and fights against all odds. Unlike some middle Eastern countries they don't have african migrants playing for them either which is even more impressive. India could learn a thing or two from them.
