We always try to score points in our games, because teams like Esteghlal try to take the game to our ground and attack, in front of us, our strategy is to play strong defensively.
Regarding the use of young players in the crucial game against Esteghlal, he clarified: This was the decision of the head coach of the team. Today, we used young Askari and Baatiyeh, and other academy players should be careful and follow the same path. Of course, we should not forget that the collective effort and team unity helped us and of course the support of the fans to play with strength in this game.
