IranSportsPress.com - Week 17 of the Persian Gulf Cup saw the “derby of Iran” being played under a heavy snowfall. Sepahan won their seventh home game out of eight this season and stayed on top of the league…
Esteghlal lost once more at home and are now trailing with seven points to Sepahan at the top. Peykan won 3-2 as they were gifted one goal by the referees.

Persepolis was also gifted one goal when an unmarked and offside-standing Heydari could equalise the Sepahan lead. Mehdi Rahmati had earlier saved a spot-kick from Kolahkaj (another gift from the referees) and was about to face yet another penalty-kick late in the game. Kranjcar took his time but finally decided for Norouzi. A decision the Croatioan coach will be regretting for weeks to come. Sepahan 2 1 Persepolis.
