Tehran Derby (Persian:شهرآورد تهران), also known as Red-Blue Derby (Persian:شهرآورد سرخابی) is a football match between the two prominent Tehran clubs Esteghlal Tehran and Persepolis Tehran of Iran. Along with the Esfahan, Mashhad, Gilan, Tabriz, Ahvaz and Shiraz derbies, it is widely considered the major crosstown derbies in the Persian Gulf Pro League, and also in the world. This match was declared as the most important derby in Asia and 22nd most important derby in the world in June 2008 by ''World Soccer'' magazine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=719260 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://groups.google.com/group/rec.sport.soccer/browse_thread/thread/3af42febbad1ab69?hide_quotes=no )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nnseek.com/e/rec.sport.soccer/world_soccers_50_greatest_derbies_130039448t.html )〕 Despite being a derby between two teams from Tehran, the match has been played in other Iranian cities as well. Taking place at least twice during the year via the league fixtures, this cross-town rivalry has extended to the Hazfi Cup, as well as in minor tournaments and friendlies. The highest scoring match between the two teams to this date, was the famous 6–0 victory for Persepolis in the 1973 derby which is always remembered and referred to by reds fans. The most consecutive number of games that was won by one of the two teams belongs to Esteghlal, who won in four back to back matches against Persepolis in the Persian Gulf Pro League and the Hazfi Cup during 2010 to 2012. == History == The first derby match between the teams took place on April 5, 1968, at Amjadieh Stadium, where the game finished as a scoreless draw. At the time, Esteghlal was known as Taj SC. Both clubs were relatively young but Persepolis had a solid fan base, because of its close association to the once popular Shahin club. The rivalry between Shahin and Taj was transferred to its current stage when the Shahin club had to cease operations due to poor relations with the IFF. Over time, the rivalry became more heated and club fans began attaining collective identities. By the mid-1970s Persepolis was seen as a working class club, while Taj was viewed as a club close to the ruling establishment and supported by the upper class of Iranian society. Persepolis fans outnumbered Esteghlal fans by large numbers at the time. But according to IFF today Esteghlal has more supporters across the country and globe than Perspolis. Because of the sensitive nature of the matches, fan violence has occurred several times. In minor cases fans break chairs or throw garbage at the field, but more notable cases of violence have involved physical fights between opposing teams and fans, storming of the field by fans, as well as significant destruction of public property. Ever since 1995, federation officials have invited foreign referees to officiate the game to ease fan and player suspicions of referee bias. This occurred after the events of the 38th derby (see below). Azadi Stadium has been the stadium where most of the matches took place, but Amjadieh Stadium (now Shiroudi) in Tehran, Azadi Stadium in Bandar Abbas and Sahand Stadium in Tabriz have all hosted the game at least once. Hassan Rowshan from Esteghlal F.C., at the age of 18 years and 357 days is yet the youngest player ever who has scored a goal in Tehran derby. He scored the 1–0 winning goal against Persepolis F.C. on May 25, 1974. Ali Alipour, at the age of 19 years and 185 days, became the youngest Persepolis F.C. player ever to score in Tehran derby. He scored the only goal in their 1–0 victory on May 15, 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tehran derby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
