What a game! Too much excitement for my cat, but easily one of the games of the tournament so far! Unfortunately, I'm up at silly o'clock because of ongoing illness. This definitely taken the edge off tonight and been great to watch!

Iran 2-2 New Zealand
Another change for Iran and it is Mehdi Taremi who has gone off in a change up front, with Amirhossein Hosseinzadeh coming on to provide a handful to defenders and a handful to very tired live text commentators trying to spell his name correctly.

I’m a Celtic supporter that stayed up all night to watch Elijah Just. He has not disappointed! If you’ve seen him in Scotland you won't be surprised by this classy performance. Please sign him Celtic!

Elijah Just's double means he is the fourth player to score two goals in this World Cup so far, following on from Folarin Balogun (United States), Yasin Ayari (Sweden) and Kai Havertz (Germany).
Will Just be the first to get a hat-trick in this tournament?

So happy for Eli Just. Coached him for a couple of years at age 13-14. His vision, technical ability and manipulation of space was incredible. That second goal was common to see.
Garry, New Zealand
Good game tonight, it's at times like this that having insomnia isn't such a bad thing. Good morning to all hope everyone is doing well.
Craig, Dagenham
I've been working night shift since the start of the tournament so I haven't missed a game yet... just don't tell my boss!

Iran 2-2 New Zealand
A couple of changes from New Zealand with Callum McCowatt and Liberato Cacace replaced by Ryan Thomas and Ben Old.
For Iran Ehsan Hajisafi has replaced Saman Ghoddos.

Another burst of energy from the fans inside Los Angeles Stadium.
Everyone was on their feet as Iran equalised and the Islamic Republic flag is flying now.

He didn’t need to do a lot with the header, just guide in into the corner. Iran had just started to look a little flat but that burst of quality has got them back into this game.

Image source, Getty ImagesWhat a ball that is. Mohebbi gets himself in between Surman and Boxall - he still has a bit to do and it is a terrific header, he has to control the pace of the cross and does it superbly.
What a game we've got on here.
Mohammad Mohebbi
Image source, Getty ImagesThis is a superb goal and Iran draw level for the second time.
The ball is played wide right to goalscorer Ramin Rezaeian and his delivery from the wing is brilliant, and Mohammad Mohebbi gets there to power a header at goal, with the ball going in off the inside of the post.
Iran 1-2 New Zealand
Elijah Just (two) is the first player to score more than once for New Zealand in a World Cup match, while Chris Wood (two) is also the first player to provide multiple assists in a World Cup match for New Zealand.

Another really good goal from New Zealand and Just. He starts on the left when they build up attacks but he never stays there and constantly drifts inside. It was a good passage of play,
Wood receives the ball in the penalty area and I am thinking 'he will take a touch and shoot' but he lays it off instead. New Zealand are at their best when the attackers interchange positions.

What a player. That was sensational from Elijah Just. Chris Wood is involved once again.
A couple of quick touches and Just passes to Wood with the outside of his left foot, and the pass back from Wood was weighted perfectly. It allows Just to run on to it and lift it over Beiranvand.

Good match so far. Given the build-up to this game and concerns about Iran's participation in this WC, football/soccer is the winner after all!
Long, Vietnam
I'm on to my fifth cup of coffee tonight. Nocturnal for the World Cup.
Tim, Northampton
Find it strange that we’ve seen very little views of either set of fans in the stadium, just the occasional close up. Goals scored but no shots of fan reaction from either team, just renewed views of the players on the pitch.

Some anti-regime spectators just cheered when New Zealand scored.
Elijah Just (New Zealand)
Just like the first half, Iran start it well and then Chris Wood and Elijah Just link up to score for New Zealand.
Wood with the slide pass, Just with the lofted finish over Iran goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand.
New Zealand 40-ish minutes away from their first ever win at a World Cup finals.

New Zealand haven't quite found their rhythm at the start of this second half and Iran are happy to drop a little bit deeper.

It wouldn't be a New Zealand game without the haka - the war cry challenge laid down by teams before the match starts, most notably the All Blacks in rugby union.
New Zealand fans preform the Haka
Iran 1-1 New Zealand
Iran's Shahriyar Moghanloo gets the ball on to his left foot and curls an attempt, looking for the top corner. But the height is always wrong, and over the top it goes.
Iran 1-1 New Zealand
Almost an instant impact from sub Mehdi Ghayedi for Iran as he strikes a half-volley well from the edge of the penalty area, only for the ball to be charged down with some solid defending from Marko Stamenic.
