PLDC - Tehran, The two teams of Iran and Qatar do not take their head coaches in the first leg to the second leg.


Of course there are different stories. Qatar dismissed its head coach and Iran’s head coach has to compensate for his being sent off from the play against South Korea.

Queiroz’s dismissal in the play with South Korea did not end in his ban from the play with Uzbekistan; FIFA disciplinary committee banned him for two matches after examining the case.

According to what is published, FIFA banned him for two matches based on the reports and the claim that Queiroz has used insulting words against the South Korean Player.

Of course, the head coach of Iran Team Melli does not believe it at all; he says that he just warned the captain of the Korean player who was elbowing Iranian players and asked him to send him off, but he was sent off instead.

After the FIFA’s vote, Iranian Football Federation lodged an appeal against the two-match ban and asked for its reduction to a one-match so that Queiroz can be on Team Melli’s bench in the sensitive match against Qatar in Doha. These efforts have not been successful so far.
