Bazeley’s fifth and final substitution sees Stemnic make way for Bindon.
90'+2'
New Zealand make a change in attack two minutes into added time, taking off Singh for Randall.
90'+1'
The fourth official indicates five minutes will be added to the end of the match for stoppages.
89'
Hajisafi sticks in a leg to bring Just down robustly on the halfway line, looking to prevent a counter-attack. The Iran substitute gives the referee a knowing smile before receiving his yellow card, which is met without any protest.
