Bozovic Praises Esteghlal's Defensive Grit

The match ended in goalless draw at the Azadi Stadium.

“It was a tough match for us against a team with quality players individually,” said Bozovic.

"There were moments in the match when they played better or tried to get into scoring positions. There were also moments when we played better and had scoring chances.

“I think they were better than us, but the draw was a deserved result for both teams. I think we are happy with the way the players and the fans performed. I am happy that we did not give up the result and even tried to win. When our goalkeeper is the best player on the field, there is nothing left to say,” Bozovic stated.
