PERSEPOLIS VS AL AHLI ( AFC CHAMPION LEAGUE)(QUARTER FINAL) LIVE REPORT

[webmaster]

I am sure that Al Hilal are shitting themselves now. Persepolis can really take advantage of their fear as they will be careful to open the game up. Just imagine how much fun we will have if we eliminate Saudi's other team from the competition. Amen to that.

Perspolis played well against Al Hilal during the group stage but Hilal look to be stronger now after trashing Al Ain.
Good luck PP in the next round. Hopefully we get games in UAE/Qatar instead of crappy Oman

Huge Tabrik and congratulations to all Iranians and Perspolis fans
I must admit i gave up all my hope after they equalized and playing with 10 men for 85 mins , but today Perspolis showed all of us what true GHEYRAT is all about man.
also 1000 Barvos to Ivanko , he has done such a great coaching job with this team and as a coach ,himself has improved treadendously since 2006 when he was our TM 's coach.
I feel so proud right now i cant even describe , i mean playing with 10 men for 85 mins and win 3-1 holly god man , unbelievable.
The only slight thing that worries me is that we will be without Kamiyabinia and Ansari in the first Leg of the semi finals.

Outstanding performance by Alipour. Mensha coming in made all the difference. Taremi caused them issues all along as well

Beiranvand had a very good game too, at one point Al Soma was replicating the exact same move that gave him a goal vs TM, but this time he came out in time and saved it without issues. That was nice to see as well. Some great exits from his goal and all around great game from him. Only disappointing guys were Mosalman and Shoja.

[Bessos]

LOL 8-0ers!!!

[Keano]

Hey folks, didn't we just win the case against KSA in CAS? I thought the home sgames were to be played in Iran from there on? Also Saudi Arabia was to pay all the expenses incurred to Iran football federation for all the previous matches played outside of Iran?

Sorry I lately don't get much chance to follow the updates frequently.

[sarbaz]

I am gona go on the Record and say that if we can get past Al Hilal in the semis , we will win the AFC championship.

I have no doubt

Btw, where was Omar Al-Soma tonight??? Seriously, I didn't see him?? I think only Mamad Ansari knows where he is

True, but given playing the whole match with a man short we also thrashed Al Ahli 3-1. So that theory is applicable to both sides in reality

[Doctor DOOM]

Great job PP. Did Iran proud, playing almost the entire game 1 man short, against a very biased screwed up chinese ref.

But enough of picking arab countries as host for our home games.
are we blind? we see how even in Oman, we're not having any support. Why cant WE pick where WE host the games? Let it be in Uzbekistan or one of the -stans to make it less one-sided.
let saudis pick wherever they want. that's their prerogative.
But we ought to use our heads and pick somewhere else other than arab nations altogether

[Omid177]

I'm not a perspolisi but I have to show my respect for their today's performance and gheyrat. One man down from the 11th minute and they still played better.
Now we'll see the strongest Iranian team vs the strongest Saudi team. Can't wait for that!

The end result is surprising which brings smile to my face.

I watched parts of the game while multitasking. Happy to see an Iranian team go to the next stage.

Al-Soma was present but did not have many chances to score. Persepolis wanted to win more, so it shows, with more desire, a team can do better.

In terms of business, this is also good for Iran and Persepolis. Good day. and Good night.

Nice celebrations. Watch Taremi's interview at the end:
