According to the reporter of Mehr, according to the announcement of the officials of the Premier League, the first week of the 22nd season of this competition will be held without the presence of spectators. This is despite the fact that it was known long ago when the first week will be held, but the ticketing system is said to have a problem!
Following this decision, Esteghlal Club announced its protest and emphasized that the return match should be held without the presence of spectators. In the protest text of Esteghlal Club, it is stated:
“Not watching the match between Esteghlal and Sepahan as one of the most important matches of the Premier League will cause great damage to the interests of Esteghlal club. Therefore, alternative measures cannot completely compensate this loss.
However, holding the first home game of the teams without spectators or holding the games of the first week of the return round without the presence of spectators is the least response to this issue. Esteghlal Club earnestly and diligently demands the establishment of justice and fairness in the holding of Premier League matches.
