PERSEPOLIS VS ESTEGHLAL TEHRAN (IRAN DERBY) Week 11 - Date/Time (+ LIVE REPORT)

[Esteghlali4life]

As usual, let the game go until perspolis scores.

[Bi-honar]

Overall a good exciting game. PP definitely deserved at least a tie. EsES barely managed to keep possession for 30 seconds at a time after they scored and ultimately that's what cost them the match IMHO.

As much as PP deserved at least a tie, I think Rahmati also deserved a shut-out in this match and he's the only reason EsEs didn't lose. But then again, if he hadn't rolled around in injury time, I think EsES would have held on to win.

Would rather let Mirzapour return to goalkeeping for TM than have a grassroller as our keeper. Srs

Good Game. Persepolis played better. Rahmati Saves Esteghlal.

CQ said this was the best derby he has seen in 5 years in Iran

[AIrani]

I watched the entire game. Persepolis had more chances to score.

I am happy that stadium was full and both teams gained a point.

Life goes on.

As usual, let the game go until perspolis scores.

Rahmati grass rolled to get a win but concede the goal finally.

Overall Persepolis played better. SS scored but resorted to CQ style of defense which is anti football in my opinion. Persepolis was all attacking, creating opportunities, and playing beautiful football. SS could play better by attacking and possibly scoring more goals. Rahmati is a lot better than Sosha.

Today SS did not lost the match just because of Rahmati and did not win because of the same mentality they had last season "score a goal and go to defensive fold".

Motion to file a name change to Mehdi Chamani

Draw of the draw: Tehran Derby

At least it was an exciting draw. If you watched the derby you would've enjoyed it. Much much better than this Manchester derby

[babak_iran]

finally a decent derby. PP played better. Rahmati had a good game but if he didnt roll around for a minute in extra time then Persepolis woudn't have time to score in the last minute and SS would have won.

[Nariman]

Mazloumi thought that lucky punch was enough with his piss poor Iranian tactic, just blindly defending with 11 men in the 2nd half to secure the win and having no plan to counter attack. Yet he comes out and says „I am happy my team played in a way that Perspolis are happy with a draw."...
His team mainly consists of Rahmati & Heydari, but kudos to him though, this works in PGL and he almost went through with it today as well. Esteghlal's finishing in general might be the best in the league, they only had 2 real chances today and one of them was the goal.

FT:
Rahmati 1-1 Perspolis

As much as I was happy with a last minute equalizer, if we review the game the result is actually quite poor (for us). Perspolis played some nice & entertaining football, but heavily lacked finishing skills as usual. We deserved the 3 points, but Rahmati with the best GK performance I have ever seen in a derby and our inability to score resulted to a draw. Overall a fine and "clean" derby, nothing for the haters to complain about.

SS scored but resorted to CQ style of defense which is anti football in my opinion.

Horrible comparison! First of all CQ plays defensive when the opponent is superior + he always has a great counter attack plan, not depending on one player overall. But SS is leading the table and played as if they are facing Bayern Munich in the 2nd half, defending with 11 men and not being able to produce one decent counter attack, only relying on Rahmati to save them.

As usual, let the game go until perspolis scores.

Rahmati wasted time and there was a foul on Taremi close to the box – absolutely nothing wrong with the extra time.
