Ehsan Haji Safi @ Panionios FC | 2017/2018

[Zamboor]

Dumb decision by both Masoud and Ehsan to play in that Match! They 100% knew what the consequences will be and therefore regardless if they have contract with their Teams or not....they should have not played. Like the IR Regime or not....of you want to play and represent IRI on the Field....play by their rules....and if their rules tell you to NOT play against Teams from Israel....for gods sake....DONT PLAY! They got exactly what they deserve...as harsh as it sounds.

Nope not a dumb decision by them, they did what is right. They stood up for what is right, Shojaei stands up for what is right when it comes to womens rights to football arenas. These Regime people yes the IR regime are the bad ones and they are the ones that should be replaced for all their real crimes not fucking Shojaei and Hajsafi.

I agree on this. They are PROFESSIONALS, who know politics and religion should be kept out of sports, they did ABSOLUTELY the right thing!

exactly the ones that want to mix in politics are the islamic republic not the israeli club team

[greenguy4life]

This is still so retarded. Makes zero sense. Other than them playing against an Israeli side, nothing bad happened, like they didn't get absolutely halved by an Israeli player, no fights, nothing. So it's just that they shared a bit of grass together for 90 minutes that they start crying about it and acting a 5 year old who's fallen out with his classmates and doesn't want his only friend to play with them because they are 'evil'. Give me a break.

Rather than talk, put money where your talk is.

Support players if they get banned. Complaining is NOT enough. Write. Get a fund started to support players who get banned especially for life so that they stay brave. Masoud Shojaee is one of the brave Iranian players. He needs our support because he also has spoken about women participation in stadium.

Israeli Lobby and Arab money would love to get us banned and all it takes is a few million dollar bribes here and there to FIFA reps and we are toast! bye Bye Russia!!

Israel doesn't mind playing us, it's the idiot IR who does. Don't even try to make an excuse out of this, it's so clearly our fault and the whole world knows.

If we want to avoid bans then we shouldn't put ourselves in a hot position

[Ali Doust]

These two are cooked. Lets start thinking about who we should replace them with on the 23 man World Cup Squad.

Got what they deserved?

Dua bekhoon in a new Iran I'm not in charge of the judiciary purge because there is plenty of IR that would be vengeance hunted. Only then would IR people 'get what they deserve'.

They did absolutely the right thing. Politics should not be in sports. Sports are what brings people together. Should Karimi and co been punished for their green armbands?

We will continue to stay jahan sevom and uncivilized in the eyes of the world with this type of stuff.

Politics has no place in sports. Proud of Masoud and Hajsafi for being consummate pros and honoring their contractual obligations.

Kranjcar's comments about Hajsafi's possible suspension.

وی پس از مواجه شدن با سوال خبرنگاری که از او درباره محرومیت احسان حاج*صفی و مسعود شجاعی از حضور در اردوی*های تیم ملی پرسید، گفت: من اطلاعات کافی از نکات آیین*نامه فدراسیون ندارم. آن*طور که من مطلع ، آنها مقابل یکی از باشگاه*های رژیم صهیونستی بازی کردند. من در جایگاهی نیستم که در این باره پاسخگو باشم. بهتر است که این سوال از کارلوس* کی*روش پرسیده شود که سرمربی تیم ملی است. فدراسیون صاحب اختیار است که یک نفر را تعلیق یا رفع تعلیق کند. ما تمام اقدامات را به عمل آوردیم و اراده کامل را برای حفظ حاج صفی داشتیم، اما او با توصیه برخی*ها تصمیم گرفت که خارج از کشور برود و جایگاهش را در تیم ملی مستحکم* کند که این هزینه*بر است.

سرمربی سپاهان در ادامه صحبت*های کنایه*آمیزش، عنوان کرد: من تعجب*زده هستم از آقایان واسطه*ها، تعجب زده هستم از آقایانی که با توصیه* برخی*ها بازیکنان ما را به خاطر مستحکم کردن جایگاه*شان به خارج از کشور می*برند؛ آن هم بدون گنجاندن بندی در قرارداد آنها که بازیکنان ما نتوانند در مقابل تیم*های رژیم صهیونستی بازی کنند. اگر چنین بندی توسط واسطه*ها در قرارداد آنها قرار می*گرفت، فدراسیون فوتبال می*دانست که چطور باید عکس*العمل نشان بدهد. اگر آقایان واسطه*ها چنین بندی در قرارداد حاج*صفی و شجاعی هم قرار می*دادند، این حوادث برای بازیکنان ما رخ نمی*داد.

I understand you guys are tryin to support Masoud and Ehsan...and theres no doubt that politics should not mix up with sports...but....as we all know...thats how its works in IRI. Hate it or love it....its exactly like it is....and they were aware of that.
Right now they did more damage to TM than anything else. What they did was wrong!
