Peirovani Satisfied with His Players at AFC U-19 Championship
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran U-19 national football team's coach Amirhossein Peirovani is satisfied with his players’ performance in the match against Japan in the AFC U-19 Championship Bahrain 2016.
Iran played out a goalless draw against Japan in Group C on Monday. Peirovani’s team was held to a 1-1 draw by Qatar in its opener.
"My team was organized and disciplined, with the players covering space well. They played very well on the counter attack, there's a good culture here and they help each other play well," Peirovani said.
"Japan had more possession but this was intentional. We gave them the ball and then denied them space."
“We didn't give them the chance to move the ball or play well. We changed the plan after half-time to attack Japan with quick transitions from defence to attack and created many chances," Iran coach added.
