🔻 The clash led to insults by Khodadad Azizi, the team manager of Tractor FC, involving Ehsan Alishah, the Gol Gohar player, and faced reactions from Mehdi Tartar and Abdullah Vaisi, the coaches of Persepolis and Zob Ahan.

🔹 Abdullah Vaisi, the coach of Zob Ahan, said at a press conference before the match against Persepolis about this: «I’m ashamed to even talk about this issue. It’s really disgraceful. How dare you insult people in front of your wife and children? You should be human—really, it’s a place for regret.»

🔹 Mehdi Tartar, the coach of Persepolis, also said at a press conference before the match against Zob Ahan about this: «The only solution is a severe response. We have a high Iranian culture, and these matters shouldn’t be passed over so easily. It’s very ugly that this kind of environment has been created. Our young people and our kids should absolutely not hear these things. It’s truly terrible, and in my opinion, action should be taken.»
