Lars Lagerback has an extensive coaching career, having previously led national teams such as Sweden, Nigeria, Iceland, and Norway. His experience in managing different teams at an international level could bring valuable insights and strategies to the Iranian team. It would be intriguing to see how Lagerback adapts to the challenges of coaching in the Asian continent.
On the other hand, Davide Ballardini has primarily coached in Italy, with stints at various clubs such as Bologna, Lazio, Cagliari, Genoa, and Palermo. While he may not have direct experience coaching on the Asian continent, his experience in Italian football could provide a strong tactical foundation for the Iranian team.
