According to Tasnim news agency, Mohammad Rabiee stated in a press conference before the Rafsanjan copper match against Padideh Khorasan: “We try to have all our focus and seriousness.” We have to reach the right limit of coordination and team play, and I am sure this will take time. After the next break of the national matches, we reach the necessary coordination and we have to be highly focused in most of the minutes of the match in order to be more successful in implementing tactical plans. I welcome the arrival of Padideh team members to Sarcheshmeh.
Regarding the ambiguous situation of Padideh team for this match, he said: “Experience has shown that in these cases, you are faced with an unknown element and events put the opposing team at the highest level of excitement and motivation, which makes our work difficult.” I wanted everything to be standard like other games, and in this situation, the opposite is easier. We do not know in what circumstances we are facing a rival.
The head coach of Rafsanjan praised the students of Reza Mohajeri and said: “The phenomenon is higher than normal in terms of motivation and desire, and this is not good for us.” We try to stay focused for 90 minutes to get the result we want from this tough game. Phenomenon vs. Aluminum was consistent in the first week and has conceded only two goals in this match and friendly matches. The opponent has a cohesive defensive line and is poisonous in counter-attacks. I hope we do not get into trouble.
Referring to the game being held at the Shahid Zeinali Stadium in Rafsanjan, Rabiee stated: “I thank all those who diligently tried to get the Shahid Zeinali Stadium to play.” My heart and the managers of the club wanted me to be the host in Rafsanjan and not to leave this city for home matches. All coaches like to have a quality pitch, and the source pitch is of very good quality, which contributes to the quality of the game between the two teams.
He praised the facilities of the orange-clad home stadium and noted: The structure of the stadium, including its various rooms as well as the lighting system, was completed with jihadist movement and high solidarity to be the host. I have worked in different leagues for many years and I think this stadium is one of the best stadiums in Iran. Every team that comes to Shahid Zeinali Stadium enjoys and welcomes playing there. I and other members of the club are the representatives of the copper workers and the team belongs to them and the honorable people of Rafsanjan.
Rafsanjan copper head coach said about the situation of Mohammad Ansari: He was a very good and polite player who helped us a lot technically. Ansari’s toe stuck to the grass and the swelling of his foot did not allow him to have an MRI. To better diagnose the swelling, he must sleep and I think we are facing severe injuries. I wish Ansari was slightly injured and we will use him after a short period. I wish Mohammad to return to the team as soon as possible and he is fully supported by me and the Copper Club. Ansari’s status will be determined next week.
