According to the sports reporter of Tasnim news agency, after Persepolis’ 3-0 win against Melan Bandar Anzali, Georgi Golsiani said: “It was not an easy game and it had two different halves.” I did not like the performance of the team in the first half. Sometimes we lost the ball or our organization or the opponent made dangerous counterattacks.
Referring to the performance of the Reds in the second half, he stated: The second half was 2-0. I think we were a bit lucky, but strong teams are lucky and we were the stronger team to win. We won this match and we are putting pressure on Sepahan and Esteghlal. We are waiting for the results of these two teams and we will fight until the end (of course, Persepolis went to the locker room with a 2-0 advantage in the first half and scored once in the second half).
The defender of Persepolis football team also said about his many goals from the penalty spot: Iranian players cannot shoot (penalties) well and I shoot penalties with the decision of the team coach. I respected this decision and so far I have scored 16 penalties in Iran, 15 of which I converted into goals.
Also, Leandro Pereira mentioned that he managed to score his first goal with Persepolis shirt: I am very happy that I scored my first goal in Persepolis. I hope to score another goal in the next game. We have important games for the championship and Azadi Stadium has a very good atmosphere. Persepolis fans are the best.
