Strange things sometimes happen in that Asia… Everything has happened over the years, and the most recent example comes to us today from Jordan.
Namely, in the women’s football match between the national teams of Jordan and Iran, the guests won after a penalty – 4: 2, which placed the Iranians in the Asian Cup.
There would be nothing disputable in that if the Jordanians had not sent an official protest to the Asian Football Federation that the goalkeeper of Iran, Zohreh Koudaei, is actually a man ?!
The president of the Jordanian Football Association, Prince Ali Bin Al-Hussein, published a letter requesting a gender check, claiming that the goalkeeper is a man who actually introduces himself as a woman.
However, Iranian selector Maryam Irandoost rejected the accusations.
– The medical staff carefully examined each player of the national team – she said, noting that she would fully participate in the investigation of the Asian Football Federation.
By the way, Koudaeija was the light of the match, and thanks to her, the Iranians went to the tournament that is on the program in India from January 20 to February 6.
The saying “who loses has the right to be angry” seems to apply in Jordan…
