Ashkan Dejagah is confident Iran can end their goal-drought by beating Bosnia on Wednesday to reach the World Cup last 16.
Iran are third in Group F with one point after a goalless draw with Nigeria and the heartbreak of their 1-0 defeat to Argentina when Lionel Messi scored in added time.
In Salvador, the Iranians must beat Bosnia, who are already out, while hoping Nigeria fail to pick up a point against Argentina in Porto Alegre.
Salvador’s Arena Fonte Nova has seen 17 goals in three games after the Netherlands 5-1 romp over Spain, Germany’s 4-0 hammering of Portugal and France’s 5-2 rout of the Swiss.
Iran can now do with scoring a few of their own at the same venue.
If they win and Nigeria loses, both sides will finish with four points leaving goal difference to decide who goes through to the last 16 clash in Brasilia next Monday against the Group E winners.
Fulham’s Dejagah says his side must bounce back from the disappointment of their Argentinian defeat with a win.
