I am very pleased and happy that I am at SV Halstenbek-Rellingen. I always knew that I cannot play football all my life. But I would continue to work in this wonderful sport as a coach,\u201d he added.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>&#8220;Great coaches like Fabio Capello, Ottmar Hitzfeld, Louis van Gaal or especially Jurgen Klopp are my role models, but I don\u2019t want to copy others. I always find my own personal style,&#8221; former Bayer Munich striker stated. <br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Hashemian has played 55 matches for Iran football team and scored 14 goals. In the 2006 World Cup in Germany, he played in all group matches. <br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>In the 2014 World Cup qualifying, Iran suffered a home 1-0 defeat against Uzbekistan last month and has a tough task to qualify for the competition. <br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>\u201cIran must win its three remaining games. We have to be very focused to book a berth in the World Cup. I think we are one of Asian strongest team and we have so many talented players such as Brazil,\u201d he said.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>\u201cI think it&#8217;s time to see a new generation in Iranian football. We have many talents and good footballers. But we need a good plan as well. This has been missing in the past decade,\u201d Hashemian concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TEHRAN TIMES &#8211; HAMBURG, Vahid Hashemian has spoken exclusively to FIFA.com about his coaching career&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22614,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[89],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13314","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-c16-iranian-legionairs"],"views":4296,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13314","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22614"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13314"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13314\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.persianfootball.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
