Bangkok.

Team Melli trained in Bangkok on Tuesday & Wednesday (November 12 & 13 ) ahead of their AFC Asian Cup 2015 qualifier against Thailand on Friday (November 15).
Coach Carlos Queiroz led the training session and he was pleased with the preparations ahead of the upcoming 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers and next year’s FIFA World Cup.
Iran are top of Group B in the Asian Cup qualifiers with seven points from three games and a win against Lebanon in Beirut next Tuesday (November 19) would put them on the verge of booking a place in the 2015 finals in Australia.
Thailand are rooted to bottom of Group B without a point to their name after three matches.

Iran are also preparing for next year’s World Cup in Brazil having finished top of their group which included South Korea and Uzbekistan.
“Well, we are working very hard in this moment and this game here, it’s an Asian Cup competition, but we use also this camp and this game as a World Cup preparation for us,” Queiroz said.
It will be the second time Thailand and Iran have met in a month after Queiroz’s team won 2-1 at home in an Asian Cup qualifier on October 15.

Team Melli training session for today lasted  1 hour and 40 minutes  in Bangkok. All the players were available for training and the coaching teams split the squad into several groups for special training as required by the head coach Carlos Queiroz.

Kamalian , the Ambassador of Iran , paid a courtesy visit to the team camp and met the players and the officials while assuring the team of the best support from the embassy.
