“If Iran need me, I’ll play on”, says Daei

June 16th, 2006 | By: Afshin Afshar | 20 Comments »

Ali Daei seems to be in denial! It is sad that he does not see the fact that his present skills, speed, and fitness are no longer enough for playing at the game at the highest level.

once again,the football team show that they don,t deserve to be in world cup,but I think the
problem is the regime itself,
hey are scare that people celebrate and it lead to another
revolution,and is true.

Why is it that on every other country’s board everyone is supporting their home country, except for Iran? Come on guys, show some support for our team. They may not be the best in the world, but they’re good enough to have made in the cup.

I think there is some credence to the idea that the ruling mullahs would prefer to avoid nationalist fuelled celebrations on the streets of Iran, but I doubt they’ve conspired to prevent it by undermining Team Melli’s performance.

Ok! My prayers worked, I claim credit for that
With Mexico-Angola draw, now it’s Iran’s turn to show some courage and win from Portugal!
Lets support Team Melli in spiritual way:

“mAshallA” Iran chikAresh mikoneh!??
“InshallA” soorAkh soorAkhesh mikoneh!
