Why does Alireza Jahanbakhsh seem to be so disliked in Iran?
From what I've seen throughout his club career and during this World Cup, Jahanbakhsh comes across as a genuinely decent and likable person, even though his performances on the pitch have clearly declined in recent years.
I recently found an interview of his from about two or three years ago, and the comment section was absolutely flooded with negative comments. Most of them were in Persian, so I couldn't really understand the context.
I'm curious, what exactly did he do to generate so much hostility? Is there a specific controversy or incident I'm missing?
