TEHRAN, Aug 24 (AFP) - Iran won the battle of Asia's World Cup heavyweights
here Friday when they beat Saudi Arabia 2-0 in their Group A clash. The
victory, witnessed by 100,000 passionate fans inside the Azadi Stadium,
gave Iran a flying start to their campaign, but also put Saudi coach Slobodan
Santrac under intense pressure to hang onto his job after his team's opening
draw with Bahrain last week.
