Only Charlton would send a player to the World Cup who's actually worse than Simon Church

I think you'll find that Iran picked him rather than Charlton sending him.

Can someone straighten out who picked him?

We definitely sent him, hoping Iran would pay some of his wages...

Proud to see an Addick playing at the World Cup. I hope he has a great tournament for Iran. Can only be good for us if he does get more experience and profile.

Same.

Reza shoots wide from the edge of the box. He seems to have made an impression on commentator Kevan Chilblaines. #OnlyReza

Southbank

Iran starting to look dangerous on the break

Sliced shot,difficult chance

If I was going to give a MOTM, I would give it to Reza.

Playing up front on your own is never easy, and he has really given something the Nigerian defenders something to think about.

I'm sorry but you're only saying that as he's Charlton. He's been very ordinary.

Maybe, but the match was full of quality, wasn't it?

cafcsinger

Fair point, shocking game really

harveys_gardener

I think he did well, one of motm contenders. Good control for many long balls laid off well. Perhaps 4/5 shots. Looked dangerous. How bad were we to give him worse service?

CLOSE!

Iran 0-0 Nigeria

So close for Iran. It has taken them over half an hour to win their first corner but it almost results in a goal as Reza Ghoochannejhad forces a fine save after Ashkan Dejagah's flag kick.

Has a Charlton player (still playing for Charlton) scored a world cup goal ?

vff

This made me laugh as well. Seems being in South London is rubbing off on Reza. One more season and he will be a terror !

Nigeria's Godfrey Oboabona is carried off on a stretcher after coming off worse in a challenge with Charlton forward Reza Ghoochannejhad.

The Super Eagles are down to 10 men while Oboabona receives treatment on the side of the pitch.

I'm proper excited to see a cafc player on the greatest stage. Really wish him well

I would hope there isn't a single Charlton supporter who does not wish him well.

Why does Reza strap up his arm?

Thinking the same thing. The camera was loving him, as well. I thought he had an OK game, to be fair. Iran would be happy with that result.

Think he only scored one header for Charlton. Home to Wolves?
