Queiroz headed Iran in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, where the Iranian Team Melli (National Football Team) Melli suffered two defeats against England and the US and earned a win over Wales and failed to book a place in the knockout stage.

The Portuguese coach’s contract ran out after Iran failed to qualify for the World Cup knockout stage.
