Iran’s deaf futsal team cemented its legacy as the sport’s most dominant force, capturing a record fourth World Championship title with a commanding 2-0 victory over Brazil in Friday’s final.

The showdown, held in Montesilvano, Italy, pitted two unbeaten teams against each other in a high-stakes battle.

Iran, which entered the match with a perfect seven-game winning streak in the tournament, delivered another clinical performance to shut out the formidable Brazilians.

The match kicked off at 19:45 local time, with Iran asserting control early. Their disciplined defense and sharp counterattacks paid off as they secured a 1-0 lead, then sealed the win with a second goal to claim the trophy emphatically.

This victory extends Iran’s reign as the most successful team in Deaf Futsal World Championship history, having previously won titles in 2008, 2012, and 2016. Brazil, a perennial contender, was left searching for answers against Iran’s relentless pressure and tactical precision.

The triumph marks another milestone for Iranian futsal, further solidifying the nation’s reputation as a powerhouse in the sport.

As the team celebrated on the court, the win resonated beyond the tournament, a testament to skill, determination, and excellence on the global stage.
