Iran and Egypt finished level at 1-1 on the final day of Group G, Saturday in Seattle. The Iranians had a goal ruled out in stoppage time for a very tight offside decision, with coach Amir Ghalenoei lamenting the lack of fairness in the call. This result keeps Iran in contention for the round of 16 as one of the eight best third-place finishers, pending the day′s remaining results.
