Kaffashian “Failures will lead to changes in the technical staff”

Ali Kaffashain the head of the Iranian Football Federation , in a short TV interview on Monday , announced that the failures of both Futsal team and the U-19 teams will lead to changes in the technical cadre.

Iran Futsal team , endured a shock exit from the FIFA Futsal World Cup Thailand 2012 , when they narrowly went down 2-1 to the debutant team Colombia, while U-19 youth team was humiliated by Korea Rep. in the AFC Championship and thus failing to make the semi final and a place in the FIFA Youth World Cup.

Ali Kaffashian , who is a target of much criticism by the media and the football community for his poor administration of Iranian football, is clearly targeting the technical staff of these two teams in order to curtail the wrath of the fans and the media.

In a recent report published in the Iranian the press, under Ali Kaffashian administration , Iran’s football failure rate in Asian football is an astounding 81%. The figure is the result based on achieving qualification to higher rounds of any competition for every Iranian team which has taken part in Continental tournament at all age levels.

Despite such dismal record, Kaffashian has recently been voted in office by default and unchallenged, for a second consecutive term.
