“Persepolis deserved to beat Sanat Naft”: Branko Ivankovic

Tehran Times – TEHRAN, Persepolis coach Branko Ivankovic says that they deserved to defeat Sanat Naft in Iran Professional League.

On Friday, the Reds defeated the Abadan- based team thanks to a late goal from Mehdi Taremi.

“I think we deserved more and deserved to win the game, because we had the better chances and played better,” Branko said.

“It was unfair if we didn’t win the match. Our players created so many scoring chances but they squandered their chances,” the Croat coach added.
