Abu Dhabi: Mehdi Taremi believes a never-say-die attitude can help Persepolis achieve their goal of becoming the first side from the Islamic Republic of Iran to lift the AFC Champions League.
Persepolis came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Saudi Arabia’s Al Ahli in the first leg of the quarter-final just under three weeks ago, and go into the second leg at Abu Dhabi’s Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium on Tuesday looking to continue their fine run on the continent.
The Iranian champions will be spurred by the fact that they also drew the first leg with Lekhwiya in the Round of 16, before a 1-0 victory saw them progress to the last eight for the first time.
