The passing in IPL is awful, yet IPL coaches expect the same players perform tiki taka in Team Melli!

36th min. Great volley from K.Rezaei is saved.

HT SS 0-0 Saipa

[Tehranto]

How is Kaveh Rezaei been doing the past few weeks? I think being at a team like Eses can really help shape him and show him how to deal with pressure. I know he scored a wonderful free-kick last week.

[Ali Doust]

Kavehs always a hard worker. The problem for him so far has been that SS game instructions hasn't really suited his game style and mostly because players playing behind him such as B.Rahmani have really struggled to find form to work up front with Kaveh. He's usually left to deal with long balls from the right wing which is very predictable for defenders to defend. Also I think pairing him up front with another pure striker would benefit his game and right now SS doesn't have that. Today his paired with J.Ansari who isn't a pure striker and has failed to contribute in the final 1/3.

[Ali Doust]

70th min Ali Ghorbani in for B.Rahmani which means he will move up with Kaveh and drop Ansari back behind them.

[Ali Doust]

76th min Goal Esteghlal!

Mohsen Karimi who came on in 2nd half in replace of K.Heydari found a reflection bounce he's way behind the 18 from a corner and he bent it in.

[Ali Doust]

The corner was produced by Kaveh which ran down the right wing. He was allowed the space since Ali Ghorbani draws more defenders in the box. Kavehs game has produced more since Ghorbanis enter as I had predicted.

[Ali Doust]

82th min Goal Esteghlal!
Jaber Ansari found himself in the six yard with a back head flick from Kaveh and Ansari sent the ball to the opposite post.

2-0 Esteghlal Game really came to live with the exit of Rahmani and Entrance of Ghornbani. It has allowed Kaveh a lot more space and he has produced!

[Ali Doust]

90th min. M.Karimi shot goes just wide.
He has been very lethal since entering the game for Heydari at half time.

[naderb94]

Games are over. Esteghlal Tehran and Sanat Naft Abadan move up in table.
Persepolis and Tractor shouldn't rest easy because Esteghlal is suddenly finding form
