Final Result: Spain Vs Iran – (1-0)
Diego Costa’s goal in the 2nd half was more than enough to give Spain their first win of the World Cup.
3 – Diego Costa has now scored with all three of his shots on target at World Cup tournaments. Fortunate.#IRNESP #IRN #ESP #WorldCup pic.twitter.com/a9dCqWXhtL

Diego Costa is one of my least favorite players. He’s like Pepe to me, only scores goals instead of preventing them.

Iran have shown more desire and fight in this second half than we produced in all the games last season

This game plan from Iran was perfect. It has worked for defending every single Spanish attacking situation. Tackles, blocks, presses, everything.
Except one of those defensive moments ricocheted in. Very harsh on them, very lucky for Spain who must offer more.#IRN #ESP
