Iran Wants AFC Asian Cup Title, Says Dejagah
Tasnim, TEHRAN – Iranian international midfielder Ashkan Dejagah said that Team Melli is determined to win the title of the 2015 AFC Asian Cup.
The Iranian national football team started its preparatory camp in Tehran for the AFC Asian Cup on Sunday.
“We have had a good training camp in Portugal in October. I think the preparatory camp in Tehran will strengthen us for the Asian Cup,” Dejagah told the Tasnim News Agency.
Iran has been scheduled to play South Korea on November 18 in Tehran’s Azadi Stadium.
“We’ve defeated South Korea twice in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers and they are motivated to beat us, however Iran is a strong team. We will have to defeat every team in the Asian Cup. We are going to win the title in the competition,” Al-Arabi stated.
