Know your Azkals: Misagh Bahadoran all fired up

by Mav C. Gonzales
“Sometimes I get tired explaining to people how Iran looks like. We’re not an Arab country. We don’t have deserts at all. There are four season and when it’s winter, I even go snowboarding and ice skiing," says Misagh Bahadoran, one of the Azkals’ newest strikers.

Iran, cookies and the smolder (you have to watch the movie “Tangled" to get that) are just a few of the things that can get Misagh fired up. With his Iranian features, blue eyes and Kapampangan food fetish, he sticks out like a sore thumb here in Manila.

And that gets people asking, how did he even end up here?
