Ali Daei: I wish we could set records in humanity.
Ali Daei is a legend who rarely gives interviews, seldom appears in the media, and prefers to be among the people in public places, responding positively to their requests for souvenir photos and engaging in friendly and direct conversations with them.
Ali Daei said: When I went onto the field, my only thought was to help the national team succeed and to make my fellow countrymen happy with my goals. At no point in my football career was I thinking about setting records or breaking them. One day, you break the record of another legend, and the next day, someone else comes along and surpasses your record. Do these records, being the world’s top scorer or the top scorer of the Nations Cup, add anything to me or do anything special for me? It’s better for a person to set records in humanity, which lasts.
The migration of elites is not limited to sports. Our elite doctors and engineers are also active outside of Iran.
Currently, we have a shortage of skilled and expert personnel in various sectors of the country.
Our sports infrastructure is in a disastrous state and is stuck several decades in the past.
The flood in Sistan is also a result of the lack of infrastructure.
