The Iranian goalkeeper storm continues to make waves in the Arab world. As you may recall, Iran advanced to the Asian Championships after defeating the Jordanian team on penalties. After the game, the Jordanian association demanded a replay following photos that raised suspicions that the Iranian goalkeeper, Zohra Kodai, is actually a goalkeeper playing with a hijab.
This demand was repealed by the AFC, the Asian Football Association, after tests unequivocally showed that Kodai is a goalkeeper and not a goalkeeper. Now she has announced that she plans to sue the Jordanian association. Kodai said: “I will sue them for defamation. They used bullying and behaved dishonestly and disrespectfully. “
Kodai has faced a number of storms in the past and now plans, as mentioned, to return to war. The Jordanians attacked her personally and the Iranian team claiming that they came up with men in costume for the game, similar to past cases in which the Iranian association was convicted. Iranian laws require team players to play with long clothes and a hijab, so that their entire body is covered except for the face and palms.
