Iran's national football team is preparing for Asian Cup semi-final against Japan with coach Carlos Queiroz calling on his players to stick to 'Iran football.'

AVA- Iran advanced to the last four after beating China 3-0 at the Mohammad Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Thursday thanks to goals from strikers Mehdi Taremi, Sardar Azmoun and Karim Ansarifard.
Japan have so far one all five of their matches in the Asian Cup by one-goal margin and Moriyasu have come under some criticism for his safety-first approach. But he is someone who knows football is not just about attacking.
However, Team Melli are firm favourites to lift the trophy this time around solely based on the performances they have produced in the United Arab Emirates so far. But Japan coach Moriyasu knows what it will take for his team to beat their West Asian opponents.
