Mizan News Agency – Amir Qala-e-Navi, The head coach of Golgohar football team in a press conference after the game against Municipality Astara In the round of 16 of the FA Cup, he made the following excerpts:
* After what happened to our team, in these 2-3 days, we only worked on the kids mentally. I thank them for running well. My children worked hard and we were able to defeat Astara Municipality. I am very happy to see my friends and children from my old neighborhoods like Farshad Pius and Mohammad Norouzi. When we see each other, we go back to 45 years ago. During these years, we had friendships with these loved ones, and according to Azizi, how soon it was too late.
* I am happy that we won with a good game and went to the next stage. I hope that this process will continue and that the children will be in better mental condition so that the team can return to the conditions it had in the past.
* Absence of Alizadeh, Pour-Ali and Bagheri in front of aluminum? We have to go to Tehran tomorrow and see what the situation is like. Sometimes it’s not a three-point game, but something that’s worth a 10-point match. They know what is going on and what they need to do. Both for that game and for the next game, they create problems that one cannot talk about and one has to cope with the situation and nothing can be done. But I still say that without the permission of God, a dry leaf does not fall from a tree.
* When a team wins by 4 goals, we must be satisfied. We must slowly introduce young players like Hossein Nokhodkar into the cycle so that he stays and does not burn. I remember I did the same with Yasin Salmani. 2.5 years ago, I brought this player to Sepahan and used Salmani in one or two Premier League games. Now he has become a great player or a national team player. We have to do the same with chickpeas. In the past, I did the same with Omid Ebrahimi and other young people, and 10-15 of them play in the Premier League. In front of Astara Municipality, it was the best opportunity to give time to Nokhodkar and Alhamdulillah gave us hope.
* We are satisfied with ourselves and our God that we did not do anything conscientiously and we did everything I did legally. Golgohar organization and club have not made any mistakes and time determines everything. We do not know where the problem was, but Golgohar did not make a mistake. Azizi Khadem is a justice-oriented person and I want the federation to reconsider this vote. There are good and respected judges in the Appeals Committee and they will definitely review the case to see what happens.
* Whatever the outcome of this case, God is above the witness that Golgohar Club did not make any mistake. We did all the legal steps and it was not done once but twice. Once, on November 4, we received confirmation, and once, according to these gentlemen, we verified it so that our minds would be relieved. We received another letter on 29 November and played this player on 3 Azar. For this reason, we did not do anything wrong, but in these issues, some votes go up and down.
* We are satisfied with ourselves and God. I am glad that people saw various issues and expertise in TV and radio programs and it became clear how they talked about Golgohar’s oppression. If something happens, Golgohar is not to blame. We did the hierarchy and went through the legal process twice, but it happened. The disciplinary committee must be respected. Azizi Khadem is also looking for changes and developments that will improve Iranian football in terms of organization and infrastructure. I’m sure we hear good news.
