According to "Varzesh3" Foolad Khuzestan managed, in Shahr-e Qods and wearing the yellow shirt that we had not seen on the players of this Ahvazi team for years, against Persepolis to win.

Sasan Ansari, Foolad's captain, who due to Ramin Rezaeian's untimely injury was again deployed at right-back, had a brilliant defensive performance in this match. With his tough, undribbleable display, he left Persepolis star Thievy Bifouma frustrated. Nevertheless, the moves of Bifouma and Tikdari down the left had reached a dead end, until midway through the match Mehdi Tartar changed strategy and brought on Mohammad Hossein Sadeghi in place of Abolfazl Jalali to try another solution — which also bore no fruit.

Foolad's captain, who enjoys great popularity among the fans and in his team's dressing room, serves the team without any fuss, and this season, at Hamid Motahari's discretion, he has played at right-back, right winger, attacking midfielder and striker, showing that regardless of the position he plays, he strives with high work rate and devotion for the success of his beloved team. Ansari, who holds the record for the number of appearances in the Premier League, in total, and is also among this club's best Iranian scorers, is now a short distance from reaching 400 appearances (in total) in the Ahvazi team's shirt.
