"You question my character with a typical prejudiced judgment of superiority," he said in an open message to Klinsmann, in remarks shared by the Iran team. "No matter how much I can respect what you did inside the pitch, those remarks about Iran culture, Iran national team and my players are a disgrace to football." 'FAMOUS DRAMATIC DIVES'Iran's football federation said it had sought clarity from world soccer governing body FIFA and demanded Klinsmann apologise and resign from the FIFA Technical Study Group. It also invited Klinsmann to visit the Iran team's World Cup camp "for a lecture on the millennial Persian culture and the values of football and sport". Queiroz, in his earlier remarks, said Klinsmann should socialise with his team and learn how much his players loved and respected football.
