Nkonam: I hope the AFC will reconsider its decision on denying the right to host from Iran Javad Nkonam in a press conference before the match against Al Ain of the Emirates: The point I need to mention is that now there are countries that have more unsafe conditions than our country, but the competitions are held on their soil. Today, good conditions exist in our country and peace reigns; Maybe there are one or two countries that are not doing well. They took away the right to host from our team and the viewers. I hope the Asian Football Confederation will look into this matter and reconsider its decision so that we can host the next matches in our country.
