Comments: Note that yohanes and John are the same!
Comments: Farzad : #14, Yohanes? Yes agree. Hosseini is already playing mid level Turkish club. Hazbavi will enjoy decent coaching in Al Saad???, and saman needs to move! With Sepahan youngsters , they getting the best possible coaching in Iran . But they also need to experience the real professional world.
Comments: Conspiracy theorists would love this:) The same ref that whistled Iran Qatar will whistle Sepahan Al hilal this coming Thursday!
Comments: Cyruss, but more than anything we need to internationalize these youngsters. You can’t have these youngsters in Iran be in what Shahin calls a bubble with GN in charge. They do need to work on playing abroad. and English 101 is a must.
Comments: Trivia: What is
Comments: Wow, as I was typing, Farzad just posted the article supporting some of my points!
Comments:
Yahya may take over Foolad FC
Comments: Kamkar, Ali Karimi was not even selected. Many were critical of GN for not selecting Ali Karimi and Ahmad Noor . With Omid Ebrahimi retiring and hopefully haj safi, they are the most logical replacements. Majid Hossein is the youngest of our core defenders, still good for the next WC and following AFC. IMO , it is time to groom him and hazbavi/ fallah for future and let go of PAG, Shoja and otoboos

Comments: KAmkAr. He is injured and that is why he did not also play for TM ![]()
Comments: Shahin, As Ted Lasso says, live like a Gold Fish..
37 minutes ago
Comments: Majid Hosseini not even on the bench. But Ali Karimi is.
Comments: I think Ghayedi did well for the minutes he played and impressed many.
Comments: So now we do Monday Morning Quarterbacking only for Futbal and GohNoei?
Comments: OK. New day and I am already over it. ![]()
Comments: I wonder what they say about the list. Ghayedi must have Arab background. ▫️ ![]()
Comments: Cyruss. Honar nazd e Iranian ast o bas.
Comments: Shahin, I should have actually pulled for the Niners because they kicked them Boys. But sorry that it didn't work for them last night.
Comments: It wasn't Mahome's best game but he pulled through. Let's see if they can create history next year.
Comments: Cyruss Qatar take corruption to whole new levels. Them bribing Blatter and company to host WC was just tip of the iceberg.
Comments: Geez shahin that looks yummy فقر طبقاتى إيجاب ميكنه كه ما بهً805 بسنده كنيم
Comments: Winning the cup or events by the host nation have always been subject to controversy. Shit happens and I don’t doubt it. The hosts millions time after time , so a little home field/ court advantage shouldn’t be surprising. But my issue is looking at this so one sided. Didn’t we do it before when we had the chance of hosting? So many stories of “ our hosting “ that didn’t go well with our competitors. 1968. Israelis felt cheated. Before that Burma was complaining about one sided officiating in favor of Iran 1976-Kuwait was unhappy about officiating In koshti many of our world level medals were questionable 1974 Asian games- Sepahbod hojat , then chief of Tarbiat badani, at the midst of Asian games, lobbied to chang the rules to count the number of medals in team sports by number of team members, hence our 2 golds in waterpolo and football became 35! And we finished ahead of China in the standings. For the first and last time! Yes, we have also been victims of seemingly unfair situations and calls. But it is my observation that not many make such a fuss about these situations except middle eastern, particularly Iranian and Iraqis. Sometime in 80s I was in Netherlands with a group of friends. We encountered a group of young Iranian men ended up having beer with them. The subject of football was naturally introduced and 78 WC. The Iranian guys were more vociferous and emotional in accusing Argentina of having cheated to the WC title. Valid subject. But the level of anger shocked the Dutch friends! They could care less. It was forgotten. To them , it was about moving forward

Comments: Qatar won it in my opinion robbing Jordan. Three pk goals looks suspect no matter what Faghani says. Btw Faghani created hashiyeh for TM with his poor referring
Comments: Not yet Farzad. Just came back from walking the dog after I came back from SF watching my son play soccer. I feel really good about the day
Comments: So the worst team of round of 16 in AFCON, Ivory coast the host wins the tournament. And the best team of round of 16, Qatar the host wins the Asian Cup. The surprise here is Qatar😂
Comments: No shahin. It was real. She also says a few words later. Like Keshti (boat)
Comments: Farzad jan, my email address has not changed. Please try again and I will give you more details. Generally speaking, I am doing great and recovering well.
Comments: Farzad: I thought it was hoosh Masnoui not Jeannie
Comments: Shahin. Have you started your Mexican Mule?
Comments: "If I was the ref I would have called that a penalty and then let the VAR correct me. It was a close one." But KAmkAr. Your angle and my angle is from TV. Ref happened to be right there. The other thing ref goes by is the angle the ball is moving after the incident. And the route the ball took could have only happened if Qatari player touched the ball. Anyways Faghani said he whistled in favor of iran. 1) Not calling the Pk (VAR had to interfere) and Faghani said even after VAR it was not a PK. 2) giving only yellow to Shoja (and VAR had to convince him to give Shoja a red). These are not signs of biased ref.
Comments: KAmkAr. No one acknowledged that the first words coming out of Geannie was in farsi. At 2:25. I was shocked.
Comments: Farzad: I remember like it was yesterday! It wasn’t just Fanaii, I remember Azizi being part of that smuggling operation:) as well as another player that I don’t remember:) Fanaii’s dive to the back of van was phenomenal. If he ever dove like that in his games, no one would have mentioned abed or beiro as the second best goalie of Iran ever :) Enjoy your game guys. Shahin treasure these moments with your kids ( they will always be kids) . It would get harder and harder to have these moments! Farzad: have a blast with sha gholam. Please relay my مراتب ارادت We are still due for that lunch! Go 9 years!
Comments: Farzad, thanks for your VAR explanation. If I was the ref I would have called that a penalty and then let the VAR correct me. It was a close one. From the angle he was it would have been hard to tell who touched the ball first. Even the commentators initially thought it was a penalty.
Comments: wow looks great. Noosh jan
Comments: Farzad, I had seen the Jeannie clip long ago. That was one my most favorite sitcom. As a teen I used this that she's the most beautiful actress on TV.

Comments: Cyruss: As I said before I am not comfortable with damet garm club but damet garm
![]() What moozigari? ![]() Yes we do want our team win because of sense of pride which will dissipate in 2 days. The opposite is true as well when our team loses but human tend to look for emotional high all the time but this is at least relatively harmless if you can move on from it quickly. Best news today is my son not going to watch the game with bunch of buddies in a bar in SF and come home to watch it with me. My daughter will be around as well for Taylor. My wife will be out shopping though Go 49 YEARS!!
Comments: There should be no Ref or VAR controversy in this game. Both are poorer than Qatar. No objection whatsoever.
Comments: Ok. Nigeria vs Ivory Coast. Ivory Coast coach got fired after the group stage.
Comments: DC jan. Sent you an email but was not delivered. Just wanted to know how you were doing. I used the email you use on this site.
Comments: Cyruss Thanks for the kind words. I do learn so much from Shahin and Bardia myself. But Cyruss don't sell yourself short, you have done wonders bringing iran football to surface outside of Iran, almost like 30 years. I remember in 2000 or was it 1999 we were in Pasadena Hilton hanging around with TM. Remember Amirghasemi's van and Dovood Fanaei TM goalkeeper?
Comments: Shahin. Speaking of Super Ball, my friend in Bay Area still thinks they are called 49 Years😂😂😂😀😂. Hopefully everyone knows why they are called 49ers. If they don't I am not surprised. 😀
Comments: سیروس جان. مشکل بعضیها فهمیدن نیست، ترس از فهمیدنه. That is what shahin calls bubble and how outside of the bubble is so scary for them. شاه غلامو میخوام ببرم سوپر بول ببینه. BTW it is Super Bowl and not Super Ball. 😂😂😂
Comments: Shahin, I think you would like this: I received a message from the endowment this morning at the midst of your discussions on psychology of different perceptions on the same sporting event. The lengthy message basically implied that we all need to see our teams wins, because of our mental health demand the gratification of victory. And the message ended as: Having said all that, go 49ers!
Comments: One of the attractions of having Shahin and Farzad here, despite occasional moozigari:), is the educational aspect of their educational and informative posts. I have always had this gratitude towards those who cared to educate! Viewing and being part of different Ifp’s , meeting many of the personalities, I think I can credit these two most in terms of substantive information, rather than hoopla and emotional “ gheirati” rhetorics.! Ali P which I miss , also was a good source of information
Comments: Photoshop is not AI.
Comments: KAmkAr Again, here is how VAR works. 1- goal and offside review is done by goal line and offside line technology and does not require Ref's review. Always. No ref review. 2- The whole 90 minutes is under meticulous review by VAR crew. 3- If anything requires more review they will let the ref know that something is under review. if the review is quick enough and obvious like the no foul on Taremi then they just continue. 4- if after review the decision is unanimous and in line with the call on the field they continue and they don't call ref for review. 5- if after review the decision is not unanimous (2-1 in a 3 person crew) or (3-2 in 5 person review) or if VAR crew unanimously are against the Ref's call, then they call the ref to come and look and make the final call. The review in person by ref is for 1- Questionable handball pk inside 18, 2- questionable Foul PK inside 18, or 3- questionable red card. The ref is not required to review whether the foul occurred inside 18 or outside. That is done by line technology. And lastly according to Faghani in Footbalitarin, All PKs in favor of Qatar were correct. He concluded that without the VAR interference the score would have been 1-1 in the regulation and with VAR it is 3-1 and that is the correct final score.
