Iran demands former German footballer and coach Jurgen Klinsmann resign from the FIFA Technical Study Group for his comments after Iran's 2-0 World Cup win against Wales
Klinsmann's comments that Iranian players"worked the referee" suggested that it was in Iran's culture to engage in unsportsmanlike conduct and obstruct on-field referees.
After the thrilling finish in the Iran-Wales match on Friday, Klinsmann appeared on BBC and made controversial remarks about Iran that immediately sparked a furor. He also derided Iran's Portuguese manager Carlos Queiroz, saying he struggled with South America and Egypt before going back to Iran for a second stint.Outrage on social media
"At this visit, it will be suggested to Mr. Klinsmann to review the 99 minutes of the Iran-Wales, even if the match was broadcasted worldwide already, and recognised as one of the most fair and beautiful matches of the World Cup history," it said.
