The national Iranian women's futsal team has finished its campaign at the 8th edition of International Futsal Tournament for Women National Teams in Russia, and finished in the third place at the end of the four-nation tournament.

On Tuesday evening, Iranian sportswomen thrashed the Czech squad 4-0 in a thrilling third-place play-off at Crocus Expo in Krasnogorsk city. 

The Persians threatened the opposite side’s goal on a number of occasions. They managed to score four goals in the first half.

The Iranian team had a vast array of scoring chances after the break, but it simply squandered the opportunities.

Soheila Malmouli, Nasimeh Gholami, Fereshteh Khosravi and Fahimeh Zare’ei netted a goal each for Iran’s national women's futsal team.

The 8th edition of International Futsal Tournament for Women National Teams started in Russia on May 6, and finished on May 9, 2016.
