In an interview with the sports reporter of Tasnim news agency, Alireza Naghizadeh said about Arak Aluminum’s 1-0 defeat against Persepolis: “Overall, we played good football and we didn’t deserve to lose.” Persepolis may have put a lot of pressure on our goal at some moments of the game, but this pressure did not lead to scoring chances.
“Persepolis had only one opportunity during the game and used it.”, he stated while saying this sentence: Aluminum could not take advantage of its opportunities and unfortunately we lost. Of course, Persepolis is one of the strongest teams in Iran and is among the main contenders for the championship.
The midfielder of Arak Aluminum football team told Tasnim about the performance of Mehdi Rahmati’s students in the last three matches and defeat in two matches: the conditions of the initial games are different and many teams are not fully prepared yet due to things like recruiting new players and heavy physical training. The condition of our team is not worrying. Aluminum has a good technical staff and quality players, and don’t doubt we will get good results. Our whole goal is to get better results than last season.
Regarding Aluminum’s match against Mes Rafsanjan on Wednesday and that their opponent has failed to win in the last three games, he noted: Mes is one of the good teams in the league and achieved good results last year. Of course, they are looking for three points in their own field, but we are not thinking about anything but winning. I hope we will reach our goal by presenting a good game.
