TEHRANTIMES - Rah Ahan suffered a heavy defeat against Mes in Iran Professional League (IPL) on Saturday.


Mes defeated Ali Daei’s team 4-0 in Kerman’s Bahonar Stadium.

Reza Enayati gave Mes the lead in the 41st minute. Mostafa Shojaei netted a brace in the 57th and 72nd minutes. With six minutes remaining, Vahid Esmaeilbeigi rubbed salt into the visiting team’s wounds.

“I don’t believe we conceded four goals. Our strikers didn’t take advantage of their chances but they did that. Sometimes things don't go the way you plan,” Rah Ahan coach Ali Daei said in the post match news conference.

Elsewhere, Naft was held to a goalless draw by relegation-threatened Gahar.

Damash drew 1-1 with Saba in Rasht. Saba striker Mehdi Momeni was on target in the 65th minute and Saeid Hallafi equalized the match in the 72nd minute.

Esteghlal remains at top of the IPL table with 55 points followed by Traktorsazi and Sepahan with 52 and 50 points respectively.
