In the 29th week of the Iranian League, Persepolis, which was run by İsmail Kartal, defeated Kheybar 2-1 with the goals of Ahmadzadeh and Urunov. Persepolis scored 57.
Ismail Kartal at a press conference after the match, reacted to the attitudes towards players and abandoned the press conference.
Here is Kartal’s Words:
After the match, it is unacceptable for the opponent team manager to punch our club manager. Insults, curses made to us … Football does not progress like this.
Let’s win or lose, there is no justice and tolerance where there is no respect.
