Following the verbal dispute between Esteghlal player Yasser Asani and Alireza Ildrum, the assistant referee of the match between Esteghlal Khuzestan and Esteghlal in the twelfth week of the Premier League, the Disciplinary Committee of the Football Association held an extraordinary meeting on Tuesday to investigate this case.
According to the Tasnim news agency, after examining the audio recorded in the assistant referee (VAR) video system and finding Ildrum's offense easily, the referees' committee also got involved. It is said that this committee, before giving the final decision of the disciplinary committee, excluded Ildrum from judging.
Ildrum easily explained the events of this game and the verbal conflict at the disciplinary committee meeting. The disciplinary committee is expected to decide on the assistant referee's statements and possible violations after reviewing the VAR audio file.
On the other hand, despite the issue of insulting the assistant referee, there is a possibility of Yasir Assani's disqualification due to unethical behavior in response to the referees.
Daniel Moradi, the head of the arbitration department, and Abolfazal Hasanzada, the head of the disciplinary committee in the football association, are supposed to discuss Ildrum's statements and his easy behavior in a joint meeting.
The final decision of the disciplinary committee in this case has not yet been published.
