Alireza Beiranvand:

Mehdi Mahdavikia came to Mexico, took a photo with the FIFA president, but he didn’t even come by the hotel to see us. What were you afraid of? Were you afraid you’d be insulted? The previous generation doesn’t want us to get results and only keeps pounding us.

Ehsan Farsoodi Pour didn’t want the national team to achieve results, otherwise he wouldn’t have kept saying fake stuff like Mourinho’s interview and… Well, if it’s fake, then at least you should have said it’s true so I could get my spirit up.

They say you didn’t qualify because karma got you. What karma? Italy didn’t come to the World Cup for three cycles—did mafia karma get them? Or did Japan get karma when they conceded a goal at 95th minute? What about Saudi Arabia and Qatar… what about them?

In the whole world, we became popular. Everyone knew what conditions we were fighting under. They kept saying for so long that you should leave America early, that I left my anger in America.

Beiranvand’s daughter:

I want my dad to return to Persepolis, and he himself is Esteghlal.
