     MNA - Iran’s Football Federation (IFF) is making effort to arrange a friendly match with Japan prior to South Korea and North Korea matches in the 2010 World Cup qualifying round. Announcing this, IFF’s 
    secretary-general said, “Since Iran was drawn with the two Koreas in the 
    2010 World Cup qualification we are going to face Japan as a team with the 
    same tactic. Meanwhile Japan is scheduled to play Australia in the 
    competition, as a result, the warm-up match will be worthwhile for them as 
    well.” |
