PFDC – SINT TRUIDEN, Future Team Melli striker Reza Ghoochannejhad returned from the disappointing trip with Iran’s national team in style, scoring both goals in his club’s 2-2 draw with Dessel Sport on Saturday.
Ghoochannejhad scored the opening goal and a late equalizer after his team had fallen behind.
The fast paced attacker had trained with Iran’s national team, but due to the non-arrival of his FIFA player passport could neither participate in the friendly match draw in Jordan, nor the shocking defeat in Lebanon in World Cup qualification.
Ghoochannejhad had been Sint Truiden’s top scorer last season, but couldn’t prevent the club’s relegation from Belgium’s top flight.
He recently signed a contract with Belgian top club Standard Liege, but agreed to stay with his old club until the winter break.
Meanwhile Alireza Haghighi finally made the the 18-men-roster but remained on the bench as substitute goalkeeper in Russia’s Premier League, as Rubin Kazan lost 0-1 to Lokomotiv Moscow.
Already on Friday Omid Nazare came on at halftime in Ängelholms FF’s 0-2 loss to Östers IF. At the time of his substitution, Ängelholms were already trailing by two goals and had been reduced to ten men.
In Spain, Masoud Shojaei was again not nominated by Osasuna’s coach, while the bottom placed Basques finally claimed the first three points of the season with a 1-1 draw against Mallorca on Sunday.
Fulham’s Ashkan Dejagah is still sidelined injured.
