Egypt and Iran Draw 1-1 in Seattle, Iran's Late Goal Ruled Out

Egypt and Iran played out a 1-1 draw in Seattle, with Iran having a late goal ruled out for offside and hitting the crossbar in the closing moments. Egypt progress to the last 32, while Iran must wait to see if they qualify as one of the top eight third-placed teams. Iran's failure to secure the win means their World Cup knockout-stage fate is out of their hands, dependent on results elsewhere across all groups.
