The hosts have swept 4-2 Sepahan in front of 20,000 spectators to qualify for the semifinal round against Bargh of Shiraz.

Sepahan who had lost IPL title against Tehran-based Persepolis in the last seconds of the game last week, endured the bitter experience once again against IPL’s relegation-threatened Pegah.

Sepahan was set to celebrate 2-1 win over its hosts but conceded a wonderful goal in the 90th minute. Two of Sepahan’s players were sent off by referee Ali-Reza Faghani due to violent behavior.

Gilani side netted twice in the added time and qualified for the next round.

Fulad of Khuzestan and Esteghlal will face each other in another match on Thursday in Ahvaz.
