We will have a tough game: Balak

Tehran - Germany will have a "tough game" versus Iran, German skipper Michael Balak told the presser Friday at Tehran Grand Azadi hotel.

Iran is a strong Asian team, and definitely tomorrow's match will be hard, Balak said as expressing his gratitude for the warm public welcome given at Tehran International airport.

I feel at home, Balak said, adding that "playing before 100,000 spectators will be a good experience for him.

Over 300,000 football fans returned home empty-handed to watch the match at home as all the tickets were sold out.

Asked about the ban slapped on women to watch the show from the stands, Balak said each country has its own specific code that should be respected, and I, as a footballer am not in the capacity to talk about it.
