Iran's Arch-Rivals to Face off in Super Cup

TEHRAN (FNA)- The two arch-rivals in Iranian football, Persepolis and Esteqlal, are scheduled to compete in the Super Cup at Tehran's Azadi Stadium in late July.



Press tv quoted the Iranian Premier League organization as announcing that the match will be held at Tehran's 100,000-seater Azadi Stadium on the 29th or 30th of July.
