TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s football team head coach Amir Ghalenoei said that they are not looking for revenge against Qatar.
Team Melli is scheduled to meet Qatar Tuesday night at the Rashid Stadium in Dubai in Group A.

“Football is for enjoyment, and our goal is to win a good game to make the fans happy. We are not looking for revenge, but we aim to win to bring joy to the people,” Ghalenoei said.
Ghalenoei also praised Qatar’s progress in football, recognizing the importance of the upcoming game for both teams. He said that a win against Qatar would be a significant step towards qualification.
“If we win this important game, we will have gone more than 50% of the way to promotion and this is what we are looking for,” he added.
