Akbarpour: Astgalal was smart and well planned/ The offensive line still needs to be strengthened Alireza Akbarpour, a veteran of Astgalal, in an interview with ISNA: Astgalal played smart and planned against Shamal Qatar and reached three points in tactical order and without pressure. Esteghlal had many chances and could have won by a bigger goal difference, but they are still weak at the attacking end and need a striker who can take advantage of the opportunities better. Sarkhaizen is a promising young player. Saleh Hardani is also a diligent and committed player who creates good situations in coordination with Yasir Asani.
