Bijan Moghanloo Quits as Iran Taekwondo Head Coach
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Bijan Moghanloo stepped down as head coach of Iran taekwondo team, following poor performance in the WTF World Team Championships.
Under guidance of Moghanloo, the Iranian team lost to South Korea and Turkey in the event which was held at the Sarhadchi Sports Olympic Center in Azerbaijan’s capital.
It was Iran’s weakest performance in 20 years.
The Iranian team, as a powerhouse in the world, showed a pretty poor performance in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio as well.
Azerbaijani team won the title for the second successive year with its Iranian coach Reza Mehmandoost.
