BUSAN, South Korea, Oct 14 (AFP) - Iran
are hoping their fourth Asian Games gold medal football triumph will set
the stage for a sustained bid to become the undisputed rulers of the sport
on the continent. "Our win will create more enthusiasm
for the team and interest will rise," added Ivancovic after a title
secured against all odds. "I didn't expect us to get through
six tough matches here but I think that we can take great comfort from the
fact that we have established the next generation of players," said
Yamamoto who saw his side commit two defensive howlers which presented
Iran with victory. |
