Iranian President Hassan Rouhani took to Twitter to praise his country’s 0-0 draw with Nigeria on Monday.

Rouhani tweeted a picture of himself looking very relaxed as he watched the World Cup match on TV.

In the picture, the leader has swapped his usual clerical robe and white turban for a casual outfit of dark tracksuit bottoms and a white T-shirt with the team’s badge on it.

On the table in front of him is a mid-game snack of fruits and tea.

Iran's next match is against mighty Argentina on Saturday June 21 at Estádio Mineirão in Belo Horizonte.
