We Deserved Victory against Persepolis, Kheybar Coach Daghighi Says
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Kheybar Khorramabad football team head coach Saeid Daghighi says that his side deserved victory over Persepolis.
Kheybar lost to Persepolis 2-1 in Tehran’s Shohada-ye Shahr-e Qods Stadium. Kheybal could have scored several goals against Persepolis but their strikers failed to capitalize on their chances.
“First of all, I would like to congratulate Persepolis for the win but I think we could have won the match. Our players missed so many goalscoring chances,” Daghighi said.
“I think they didn’t believe in their ability to win the match. Persepolis is a great team but we could have won the match,” he added.
Persepolis moved up to third in the IPL table with 26 points, while Kheybar sits 14th with 13 points.
