Thanks for all the comments. The game was too exciting for me to keep filming since I couldn't follow it good through the camera. Oh well, I guess better than nothing.

Thanks for uploading this! I was then 19 years old, and my baba and I drove up from Chicago for the game. First time in Canada, first time seeing Team Melli who were a hot commodity at the time.

The game was organized by Mehrdad Massoudi, who at that time was the press officer at the Canadian Soccer Association (CSA). I assisted him via my Iranian Sports Mailinglist (ISM)....which was an all email service that I had started right after World Cup USA'94.
