Khatam overpowered Atyrau of Kazakhstan 3-0 in the final match of the 2018 Asian Men’s Club Volleyball Championship in Naypyidaw, Myanmar on Monday.
“I’m very happy that my team won the title for the first time here and all credit went to everyone in my team. This championship is our team’s first experience. Every team came here to fight for the best result in a competitive competition, not for fun,” Mirhosseini said.
“Although we lost only one set throughout the whole tournament, I find it very difficult for my team to play in this championship since all participating teams are strong,” he added.
Iran’s Khatam will represent Asia in the 2019 FIVB Volleyball Men's Club World Championship.
