Mehdi Fanonizadeh said in an interview with Mehr reporter about the national team’s championship in the KAFA tournament: Our country’s national team was able to achieve the championship position with three victories. Although there were no famous teams in this tournament, these games were almost a good benchmark for the national team’s technical staff to get to know the players they had better and to be able to put the players together more with a camp and preparatory games.
He continued: “Our opponents did not have a significant impact from a technical point of view. Of course, Uzbekistan had a great performance in the final match and troubled our national team several times, but in our football series, there were a lot of these teams that we played against.” But these games can be put to good use and the technical staff should achieve their goals to some extent.
The football expert continued: These games are over and there is not much time left until the start of the Asian Nations Cup. Our football needs to compete with the big and prominent teams of the world. will go The technical staff knows more about the weaknesses of the national team and can overcome these weaknesses by the time left for the start of the Asian Nations Cup and go with a strong team to a tournament that has a long history in Asia and we have not been able to win the championship in this cup for many years. let’s achieve
Fanunizadeh strongly criticized the unprofessional and childish behavior of Canaanites in the final minutes of the game against Uzbekistan and said: “It is a pity that such a player with such ethics and behavior is in the national team.” You won’t see the behavior from him again in local football. He sits on the ground like a child and doesn’t want to leave the field. The controversy that happened after this incident was the main cause of the Canaanites who behaved with this childish and unprofessional behavior. And even the amateur caused controversy for a few minutes of this game and our national football was called into question because of this ugly behavior. I hope the technical staff, especially Amir Ghale Nooyi, will deal with this issue with all their might and not allow these behaviors in our national football. continue. If we are to go to the field in the Asian Nations Cup against our opponents with this situation, it will definitely cause the Asian Football Confederation to have a different attitude towards our country’s football.
Regarding the selection of Javad Nekonam as the new head coach of Esteghlal, the football expert said: Esteghlal fans had a hard time, they heard new news every day. Javad Nekonam, who has a lot of experience, played in Esteghlal himself and is from the Esteghlal family, became the new head coach of Blue Poshan. The fans strongly supported him. He has a tough job ahead of him and he must start training with a detailed plan so that he can have a strong start in the Premier League.
Stating that every day news is published about the recruitment of new players and the new technical staff of Esteghlal, he said: we should allow his introduction ceremony to end and Nekunam to determine the names of the members of his technical staff. The best thing is that he uses experienced people and hires a good foreign training coach so that he can have prosperous days in Esteghlal. Nekonam and the officials of Esteghlal should use the bitter experience of last season and have a powerful start combined with calmness and sincere communication so that Esteghlal can make up for the past failures this season.
