Beiranvand [#1]: Not really tested in this game but when his presence was required he was solid and assuring. His distribution of the ball could have been better otherwise he kept a clean sheet and was one of the more relaxed players on the team.  7/10

Khalilzadeh [#4]: Dominant in the air and won his tackles well. Defended well while continuing to show his worth in the heart of the defense. Hardly put a foot wrong.  He is guaranteed a starting place   8/10
Kanani [#13 ]: Loose in possession early on and quite nervous. His tackles bordered on the dangerous side at times. He was easily dribbled by Iraqi forward, his teammates covered his failure well. Still not quite the reliable center defender that Team Melli needs. He is a liability against stronger teams. 5/10

Moharrami [#2]: Apart from that silly yellow card he received, his work was done flawlessly. He did not venture forward as much as he wanted  7/10
Hajsafi [3]: A very good performance in the left-back post after playing all the previous matches as a holding midfielder. His defending was  solid but the pass assist that he provided Azmoun was world Class 8.5/10

Nourollahi [15]: Ran the midfield closing down the Iraqi counterparts and breaking their supply line. He is still a work in progress in midfield and lacks the consistency to make him an asset for Team Melli 6.5/10 
Ezatollahi [6]: Still not that old Ezatollhi with his tremendous physical strength and tackles. Needs time to gel with his teammates as he is been away too long. 6/10

Gholizadeh [18]: Continues to impress although, in this match, he was more conservative in his moves. Missed a glorious chance to score when he wiggled past the Iraqi defenders only to shoot quite mildly exactly where the Iraqi keeper was standing! 7/10

Jahanbakhsh [#7}: Not convincing for a player of his caliber. He was nervous and some of his mistakes could have been costly like when he lost his own ball that ended in a bad tackle on the Iraqi player. This could have been a straight red card. Still not fully ready for international matches. The insistence of Skocic on playing him is a mystery as he adds little value for the team at the moment.  5/10

Taremi [9]: inconsistent striker with a questionable attitude. Got himself booked for a silly tackle then minutes later he was quite lucky not to be sent off for a second yellow after he kicked the ball away after the ref called for a foul. Exactly what happened in Porto’s game in the Champions League. A petulant and unprofessional attitude can overshadow his game and threaten his progress. His best contribution was a beautiful pass to Azmoun that could have made it 2-0, but Azmout shot was too timid. 6/10
Azmoun [#20]: Scored the only goals of the game. The goal was reflective of his status as a lethal finisher. Clinical, accurate, and finished the job with confidence. He was also active on the defensive side and was full of running in the match. Still not linking well with Taremi. 9/10

Subs
Mohammadi [#5]: Strong runs and solid defending. If only he is consistent in his performance. 7/10 
Sarlak [#11]: A surprise last-minute addition to the squad by Skocic however he fared well when he came in as a substitute. 6/10 
Ghaedi [#23]: Did not see much action in the 12 minutes he played. Guilty of a glorious miss in the last second of the match. Playing at this level, such misses are unforgivable 5/10
Ghoddos [#14]: one of the better players in the squad with a sharp vision and killer passes, yet he is only being used as a sub by Skocic. He dominates the midfield and links well with the forwards. The only candidate for the Midfield Maestro at the moment provided he is given minutes. 7/10
Rezaei [#21] Not enough time on the pitch to rate.
