Miodrag Božović's first coaching victory in Iran, in the third round of the Persian Gulf League.

His Esteglal Huzestan from Avhaz defeated its namesake, the much more famous Esteglal FC from Tehran - 1:0, as the host at Gadir Stadium in the south of Iran.

Grofof Estaglal collected a point in the first two rounds - a draw and a loss, which speaks volumes for how important this victory is for the Montenegrin coach.

Esteglal Khuzestan - the popular "southern blue" - was founded only 13 years ago, last season it avoided relegation by a point - which means that Božović does not expect an easy job in Iran. It went well though...
