Iran beats Russia 1-0 in international friendly (AP)

Mohammad Reza Khalatbari scored a late winner as Iran shocked Russia 1-0 in an international friendly. Russia dominated the game in the neutral venue Wednesday and placed Iran under plenty of pressure, but rarely threatened goalkeeper Mehdi Rahmati. Khalatbari dribbled past two defenders to beat Igor Akinfeev from six meters (yards) with one minute left.
