'Your last night game was perfect,' Ayatollah Khamenei said.

The Leader's message was conveyed to the Iranian squad in Russia by his bureau in Tehran over phone.

Despite the magnificent performance of the Iranian footballers, Iran finally lost the game to Spain 1-0.

Iran is scheduled to play its last game in Group B of the competitions against Portugal on June 25.
