According to “Varesh Se”, independence In the continuation of the Asian competition, he succeeded with a result of 1-0 north beat Qatar and get another three valuable points. In this match, Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh’s students were able to take control of the flow of the game with a different formation and proper organization in the two phases of defense and attack. The tactical display of Esteghlal in this match, especially in the way of controlling the opponent and using the side spaces, has been noticed by Mehdi Hosseininasab.
Mehdi Hosseininaseb, the former coach of Persepolis and the former head coach of Saipa, discussed with our reporter the performance of Esteghlal against Shamal. At the beginning, he praised the way the Blues played and the tactical decisions of Sohrab Bakhtiarizadeh and said: “Sohrab was able to line up well against the opponent with the 3-4-2-1 system and, in my opinion, he dictated his plans to the Shamal team. Al-Shamal also had professional players, but Esteghlal did not allow this team to create a dangerous situation in the defensive phase. Of course, during a 90-minute match, things may happen and the opponent hits the goal; In this game, such a situation was created in the first half, which the Esteghlal goalkeeper blocked well.”
Hosseini Nesab further pointed to the tactical order of Esteghlal and how to implement the plans of this team in the defensive and offensive phases and explained: Esteghlal had good organization and order, and from the beginning of the match, the situation did not go in such a way that the movements of the players caused this order to be disrupted. The transfers they made from the left and right flanks, as well as easy effective movements in the attacking phase, helped the team a lot. The system played by Esteghlal is a complex system and the players must be able to perform their duties properly in both the defense and attack phases. At the time of attack, they should be present in the opponent’s field with more people, and when defending, they should provide less space to the opponent. In my opinion, Esteghlal was able to have the necessary efficiency in both sectors.
He said in his overall assessment of the Blue Poshan show: “All in all, Esteghlal had a day with few mistakes, had a good analysis of the opponent and was able to manage the flow of the game well and achieve a sweet victory. I hope this process continues for Esteghlal and this team can advance to the next stages in Asia.”
The former head coach of Saipa also said about Mohammad Hossein Eslami’s performance in this match: “I like the Islamic game. He has the ability to pass his direct player and can help the attackers of the team. In this match, we also saw that when he entered the field, he became a good complement to Asani and Esteghlal’s attackers and was able to perform effective moves.”
