Mino Madah After the good performance of his students in the games of Islamic countries and winning one gold, four silver and one bronze medals, he said in an interview with IRNA: “If I want to tell the truth, we should know that the obvious injustice and influence of Turkey as the host caused two gold medals. we be taken Anyway, they took advantage of the hosting conditions and deprived 2 players of the Iranian women’s team from getting the best medal.
He said: Ghazal Soltani was a few points ahead in the fight against the host opponent, and the referee gave him five warnings with strange decisions to make him lose, because there was no other way for the Turkish taekwondo player. We clearly witnessed unfairness in Nastern Valizadeh’s fight, and unfortunately, Soltani and Valizadeh did not get their due.
The successful head coach of Iran’s national women’s taekwondo team said: I told the players that you should be so strong that the referee cannot make you lose with his decisions. Injustice is always there and we must prepare ourselves to deal with these issues.
Expressing his satisfaction with the performance of his students, Maddah said: only Zahra Pourasmail, the representative of our 7th weight, could not meet the expectations. He was physically fit, but he made his opponent look too big and failed to live up to expectations.
Regarding the next program of the national women’s taekwondo team, he also stated: Attending the French Grand Prix will be our next program. Also, we have the World Championships in Mexico at the end of December.
The head coach of Iran’s national women’s taekwondo team continued: My effort is to send more people than in the past. There has always been a fear that if we win the full team and get a small number of medals, there will be problems, but we should not be afraid. How many times can an athlete appear in the world arena? This is the best opportunity to gain experience.
He added: Of course, we have to consider the costs because we have many competitions and the federation alone cannot cover the costs and needs the support of the ministry and the committee.
Madah said: In the end, all the programs are aimed at getting more than one quota to participate in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
