🔻Esteghlal and Persepolis for the 107th time, this time at Naqsh-e Jahan Stadium in Isfahan, will face each other.

🔹But in this derby, some supporters of the two teams are missing forever; young people whom the Islamic Republic killed during the national uprising of Iranians; fans with lives, families, dreams, and a shared love of football.

🔹For those who are no longer here, this derby is not just a football match; it is a reminder of the seats that could have been filled today by people who should have been on the stands.
