Iran national football team coach Carlos Queiroz says that it’s time to make impossible possible.

Iran will play Uzbekistan on Thursday in Tashkent in Group A of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification.
The Persians will entertain South Korea on October 11 in Tehran’s Azadi Stadium.
“Team Melli's history shows that despite boasting great players, coaches and presidents, Iran have never qualified for the World Cup finals twice in a row. My job, my goal, my mission and my dream is to make this happen,” Queiroz said.
“If we learn from history, in order to make the impossible possible, we mustn't repeat the same mistakes or misunderstandings from the past,” Iran coach added.
 “It’s time to continue our work. It’s time to make the impossible possible. We will face top rivals. The time is now, it is time to develop the best support for this group. As always, we now we can count with you all. Wish all the players and you the best,” Queiroz said.
“We don’t need the persons who take picture with us after the final whistle. We need persons who support us during the competition,” the Portuguese added.
Iran has been drawn along with South Korea, Uzbekistan, China, Qatar and Syria in Group A of the third round of the competition.
Asian powerhouse Japan has been pitted against Australia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq and Thailand in Group B.
The winner and runner-up of each group (four teams in total) will qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, while the third-placed teams of each group (two teams in total) will head to the play-off round of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
The winner of the Asian play-off round will then face twice the fourth-placed squad in the fifth round of the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) qualifying games.
