The Guinea-Bissau team was prepared to hold a friendly match with the Iranian national football team, but due to flight issues, this opportunity did not materialize. Khaier, a member of the Iranian Football Federation's board, explained that the lack of international flights has prevented various teams from coming to Iran.

Consequences of Not Holding Matches
The absence of friendly matches can have negative effects on the performance of the Iranian national football team. In the world of football, team preparation through friendly matches is of utmost importance. These matches allow coaches to identify the team's strengths and weaknesses and prepare players for official competitions. The Guinea-Bissau team, which is also striving to elevate its football level, is seeking international opportunities to play against various teams. Such matches can help smaller teams gain more experience and become recognized on the international stage.
Given the current situation, the Iranian Football Federation can create better conditions for the presence of foreign teams in Iran in the near future by making appropriate plans and establishing communications with airlines and relevant authorities. This will not only benefit the Iranian national football team but can also contribute to the growth and development of football in the country.
