Estagall Club's request to forgive and not deprive easily.
Esteghlal Club:
Based on the published audio content, the behavior and statements of the assistant referee, Mr. Ildrum created serious doubts and questions for Yasser Asani. This is the basic question that a member of the refereeing team allows himself to confront the player with insulting literature and with such behavior he created the ground for breaking the peace and creating tension on the field.
Esteghlal Club believes that in evaluating the player's behavior, the conditions and factors leading to his reaction cannot be ignored. Every reaction has a result, and for a fair judgment the reason and context for its occurrence must also be examined. Yasser Assani is a player who was added to the Estegalal team with professional ethics and a positive spirit, and the club believes that the events that happened and the provocative behavior attributed to the assistant referee played a decisive role in the formation of this player's anger, in his removal and even in changing the outcome of the game. Of course, Yasir Asani has no provocative and non-offensive behavior.
Another important point is that in this incident the player did not receive a direct red card, and this issue doubles the need for a detailed and comprehensive investigation of the case and the suitability of any disciplinary decision to the actual circumstances of the incident.
Esteghlal Club, which respects the position of the Disciplinary Committee and the necessity to maintain order and morality in football, openly demands the forgiveness of Yasir Asani and prevents the expulsion of this player. It is expected that in handling this case, not only the actor's behavior will be considered, but also the role of the underlying causes of this incident will be seriously examined.
We also expect the Disciplinary Committee to consider in this case the exciting atmosphere and sensitivity of public opinion and Esteghlal supporters. Esteghlal supporters demand justice and expect that any behavior against professional, ethical and judicial principles will be treated fairly, regardless of the offender's position and responsibility.
Esteghlal Club emphasizes that judges and members of the judging team must maintain peace, justice and morality on the competition field, instead of becoming a source of tension through inappropriate behavior or speech.
Football is a field of competition, not insult and provocation.
