Branko Ivankovic handed one match ban

Tasnim – TEHRAN, Persepolis coach Branko Ivankovic was charged with misconduct by the Iran Football League Organization after the match against Zob Ahan.

The Croat has been handed a one-match touchline ban as a result of his actions in an Iran Professional League (IPL) meeting with the Isfahan-based football team.

Persepolis defeated Zob Ahan 1-0 in early December in Tehran’s Azadi Stadium.

Ivankovic said the referee’s decisions went against Persepolis.

Ivankovic’s first game in the stands will be against IPL leader Padideh in February.
