#TeamMelli of Iran was this close to going through, Portugal was this close to going home #IRNPOR #WorldCup #Russia2018

At the end of 90 minutes, Iran drew with Portugal 1-1.
Portugal qualified for the round of 16 at the World Cup despite being held 1-1 by Iran in World Cup Group B on Monday after Cristiano Ronaldo missed a penalty.
The European champions, needing a draw to qualify, went ahead with a stunning Ricardo Quaresma goal in the 45th minute.
Ronaldo had a chance to extend the lead when he won a penalty in the 51st minute but Iran goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand dived to his left to save his effort from the spot.
Spain will play Russia in the last 16, while Portugal will take on Uruguay.
Watch as Ronaldo missed the penalty kick:
