According to Varzesh3, Oston Urunov, in recent weeks and after going through a continuous spell of benching in the season's opening matches, had been added to the starting lineup of Persepolis and had put on a good display. The Uzbek star's first goal in the new season was scored in the match against Naft Abadan, and during one half of presence in Persepolis's lineup against Mes Shahr Babak, he also sent the assist for this team's first goal to Thievy Bifouma But in circumstances where Persepolis fans imagined Oston Urunov would also be in the starting lineup for the sensitive match against Foolad, the player recently suffered a minor injury and has missed today's match.

Thus, according to Persepolis's published list for the match against Foolad, Oston Urunov is not even among Persepolis's substitute players, and we are witnessing his absence at Shahr-e Qods Stadium. This technical star, during his time in Iran, has twice succeeded in scoring against Foolad, and in fact this Khuzestani rival is considered his favorite opponent in the Premier League.

In the very first months of his presence in Tehran, during Persepolis's goal-filled victory by a 4-2 result over Foolad, Oston Urunov had succeeded in scoring in the first half with a spectacular move. Also, during Persepolis's last win over Foolad in Shahrivar 1403 (August-September 2024), Oston Urunov, with a similar move and a penetration from the left, opened Foolad's goal and laid the ground for his team's victory. But again a new injury came for Persepolis's popular star, and Urunov has missed his team's sensitive match against Foolad.
