Fajr Sepasi

Match report

Fajr-Sepahan and Zob-Ahan played out a 0:0 draw in the Persian Gulf Pro-League's fourth round on Friday. The match took place on 29 August 2026, and neither side could find the net despite both carrying some momentum into the fixture. By then, Fajr-Sepahan had already collected five points from three games while Zob-Ahan sat on just two.

The first half passed without much incident until the thirty-second minute when Meysam Moradi received a yellow card. That was the only booking for twenty-seven minutes, and the game settled into a rhythm that suited neither side's attacking instincts. To be fair, both teams seemed content to avoid mistakes rather than create chances.

Substitutions began in the forty-eighth minute when Amin Jahan Kohan and Hadi Baghban came on together. Mehdi Sharifi followed in the fiftieth, and then Meysam Moradi was replaced by Ali Helichi on the hour mark. Mohammad Seyed Hosseini and Nima Entezari arrived together in the seventy-fifth, with Mehdi Bahraminejad joining Ali Shojaei's booking in the eighty-second.

Both sides picked up a yellow card each — Moradi for Fajr-Sepahan and Shojaei for Zob-Ahan — which kept things measured throughout. The statistics reflect that nothing special happened: one card apiece, no reds, no goals. When a match like this finishes 0:0, it usually means both managers prioritized not losing over winning.

The result leaves Fajr-Sepahan in eighth place with five points from three matches, while Zob-Ahan remain in thirteenth on two points after their first defeat. It does not change much in the table, but it ended Zob-Ahan's run of two consecutive draws. And here's the thing — both teams were already in the habit of grinding out results rather than playing freely.
