PLDC - Tehran, Alireza Abbasfard the 31-year old player replaced Mohammad Ghazi in Team Melli.

Due to his injury, Mohammad Ghazi is not able to accompany Team Melli in the play against Uzbekistan. Alireza Abbasfard replaced Mohammad Ghazi in Team Melli.

According to the physicians of Team Melli diagnosis, Mohammad Ghazi cannot accompany Team Melli in a play against Uzbekistan team so Alireza Abbasfard from Rah Ahan Team was invited to Team Melli.

He will be present in the camp tomorrow. The interesting point about Alireza Abbasfard is that although he is now 31 years old, he has been invited to Team Melli against many criticisms by the Team Melli technical cadre, because many of the young players of the premier league have no place in his thoughts.

It seems that by inviting Abbasfard, he is one of the major choices to be dismissed from the camp, though Carlos Queiroz might have been looking for a powerful offensive header that he invited Abbasfard after the injury of Ghazi.
