00:00This game has predicted a victory for Iran by one or maybe even two goals.
00:05Oh, there's a big chance. Chance for Charlie to take the lead.
00:08Oh, it's a... Oh!
00:10Well, we've seen so many chances spurned.
00:13Having said that, let's see what he does with this.
00:15Well, he's got the height and he's got the header and he's off the line.
00:18The header was from Sardar Asbun and it looked...
00:21Well, it was certainly going in. It had beaten.
00:23Kindly for Woulet.
00:25Instead, it's to the other end and this surely will be knocked back.
00:28Oh, he's dallied and dillied and might lose the possession and a four-back here.
00:32They have to lead. Iran are in front. Horrible defensive mistake.
00:36And there, on this...
00:38He's got Toremi running in again. Oh, is that a penalty kick?
00:41The... Well, again, there'll be a big decision there.
00:45Jaggers ball in. More danger here.
00:47Oh, goodness gracious. That is a foot wide of the uprights and it's him again.
00:52It's Toremi again.
00:53Just say there's nothing you can do about it.
00:55Race on here with Asbun and he's in. Asbun to make it two.
00:59Iran have taken this one by the scruff of the neck.
01:03And this is a super example from a striker on top form.
01:08The referee is coming over, however, that the video assistant referee...
01:12It could have been a tug on the shirt.
01:15He's going to have a look and then he has to decide whether the original decision counts...
01:19Or whether the goal is ruled out, which China must be desperate for.
01:23Well, there is a pullback there.
01:25There is a pullback there.
01:26And it's up to the referee to judge whether they're both doing it.
01:32Well, it's interesting. We've got the video assistant referees there.
01:35We thought there it was 2-0.
01:36From that angle.
01:37It might still be.
01:37From that angle, for me, it's a foul.
01:40From that angle, for me, it's a foul.
01:46With Zhang Chengdong.
01:47Good ball in.
01:48Grabbed by Behring Van, who's alert as ever.
01:51Well, really good ball in.
01:53Fantastic delivery.
01:54And Jagger, who you think of a shot?
01:57Slips it instead to his left.
02:00Four in white across in the middle.
02:01Key moment in the game already.
02:03And China have come away unscathed.
02:06Jagger still managed to win it back, though.
02:08Referee says play on.
02:10They're all back in the centre here.
02:12It's going to go over.
02:13It's a lobbed effort over.
02:14They know they're in a match still.
02:17Once again, really good defending from Iran.
02:20And now, three on two.
02:21Three on two, absolutely.
02:23If they get this right, it'll be game over.
02:25I think he's pushed him out a bit too far, Asmoun.
02:28He's confronted already.
02:30Is it Asmoun's night?
02:31He's got it into Jahan back.
02:32Big, big chance here for Iran to seal it.
02:35Maybe taking too long.
02:37And the final effort is to hopefully go forwards.
02:41And they'll lose the ball and it enables Iran to claw forward in number again.
02:46They are definitely hunting this third goal to finish the contest once and for all.
02:51Good save.
02:53Far away, but far enough away for Udabao.
02:57Has support on his left.
02:59And he'll carry on running.
03:01And Udabao has a chance to bring China back into the game here.
03:04He's run on and on and on.
03:05And finally put it wide of the target.
03:08In Alain.
03:10Tantalising semi-final.
03:11Another mistake made.
03:13Is that the last mistake of the evening?
03:15Is this the final shot of the evening?
03:16Iran are on their way into the semi-finals of the Asian Cup.
03:21And it's the substitute.
03:22Kelly Mansely fired.
