According to the Mehr news agency and quoted from the official website of the federation, football manager of the national team, Hamid Stili, said about the events of the past weeks regarding the national team and the issues raised: The first principle is transparency and honesty for all of us, we must tell the truth to the people and nothing for We are not more important than national interests. I once wore the proud shirt of my country’s national team and now I am experiencing the honor of serving the national team in a different position. I am not a stranger to some destruction and unkindness, but if you believe in your goal, you will tolerate such unkindness. From the time I joined the Omid team until today, I have been in the service of the football federation for almost four years and I did not receive a single rial from my wages and salaries in the Omid team or the seniors. This time, I came to help Mirshad Majdi, who is a football figure, and my duties were not limited to being the head of the team, but I tried to use every connection and capacity I had to help the national team. I feel responsible when the national team needs a dedicated flight or support and funding problems arise because we are all together and have a common task.
The manager of the national team added: In more than three decades of professional football, I worked with many coaches and I myself coached for many years at the club and national levels. Each coach has his own style and method in each camp. According to the conditions of the Qatar camp, the head coach of the team set his own desired schedule, not having breakfast or not setting the bedtime may be suitable for the Qatar camp and the weather conditions there, especially when our team trains in the early hours of the night. was doing Rasa’s supervisory staff does not legislate in this regard, but implements the technical staff program. We are not going to make a decision based on our personal taste and opinion, but we have the duty to implement the head coach’s program and this is not a new issue. This is not a complicated issue and it is implemented in a completely professional manner with the opinion of the head coach of the team. I know the area of my duties and my effort is not to interfere with the decisions of the head coach and technical staff in this area.
Steely also said: There are undoubtedly differences of opinion and taste in a family, but these differences should not lead to division and conflict. Unfortunately, after the Qatar camp, some undesirable events happened that sidelined the federation and the national team, and now we are looking to find the culprit in the short distance left until the World Cup. I believe we should use this experience to solve problems and unite team members. Just as football players forget the incidents and physical conflicts in the field an hour after the match, they have learned to put aside their annoyances and complaints to achieve success and become united. My request to all football people and the media is to leave all the issues behind from now on. We are all one team, from the management and technical staff to the players and individual members of the national team and the federation. We may have different opinions and need more time for empathy and coordination. I believe that this happened between the guys on the team and they forgot about the issues of the previous weeks.
He added: There is no more distance or difference and two sides. The necessary coordination and unity is formed between the supervisory and technical staff of the team in order to act within the framework of our duties or in good faith, because for all of us, the pride and glory of dear Iran is more important than anything else, and we must be united in this direction.
