Mehdi Mahdavikia, Fußballer bei Eintracht Frankfurt, ist als Kapitän der iranischen Nationalmannschaft zurückgetreten. Er gehörte zu den Spielern, die beim letzten Spiel gegen Südkorea das „grüne Band“ trugen. Aus seiner Erklärung via niacINsight:
“My last word is to those who have called national soccer players traitors. How dare you speak without any proof or any documents calling players who over the years have sacrificed everything including their bodies, their souls and their families in order to make Iran proud, and to bring titles and joy to the people of Iran.”
“I suggest you show your track record and give us the honor to learn loyalty from you…though I am sure people will judge between us the traitors and you loyalists well.”
“Every night, before you sleep, think about respect and be conscious of those who you are about to disparage. The members of the national team are proud individuals who at every instance have given their utmost to make Iran proud.”
“National players did not work so hard for you to insult them with these words.” (Im original)
Hier bei Press TV kann man nur erahnen, um was es geht.
Diese Meldung vom Montag ist etwas deutlicher…
Iran’s Football Federation (IFF) Vice President, Mehdi Taj, says the IFF disagrees with Parliament Members‘ involvement in the country’s football affairs.
Taj made the remark after the IFF President Ali Kafashian held a meeting with the head of the parliament’s football commission, Meqdad Najaf-Nejad, on Sunday.
„We are responsible to answer people and the Members of Parliament, but oppose the MPs‘ involvement in the administrative affairs in the country’s football, that is, to decide about the federation’s managers,“ Taj said.
