Al Sadd came here in Tehran to beat Esteghlal: Jesualdo Ferreira
Tehran Times – TEHRAN, Al Sadd head coach Jesualdo Ferreira said they have traveled to Tehran to defeat Iran’s Esteghlal football team.
The Qatari giants will play Esteghlal in the first leg of the 2018 AFC Champions League quarterfinals at the Azadi 80,000-seated Stadium on Monday.
