		First Blazevic, as a journalist, attacks at a press conference the Croatian national football team selector Otto Baric, using the fact that, after all, he is a greater authority in football than his successor, which is allowed, even welcome, for why would not journalists be greater experts than those they speak or write about.
		The allures of journalism and football are probably contained in their simplicity and thus – unlike literature or figure skating – every football spectator has an illusion that he could be the coach of the national team, just like every reader thinks he could be a journalist.
		Croatian journalism, in this regard at least, has an advantage over Croatian football: A formal education and a license are required for football selectors, while for being a journalist – or at least calling oneself so – a license is not required.

	A third half for Iranian football, by Christian Bromberger
		Iran’s hiring policy for coaches and the issue of football transfers symbolise the new spirit of openness: in a major break with the past, the national squad has, since November 1997, been trained by a foreign coach (as was generally the case under the shah).
		However, both before and after these moments of consensus, the ups and downs of the national team were the subject of, and a pretext for, sharp political words among the clans occupying the upper echelons of the state.
		The team’s driving forces are recruited mainly from the Azerbaijani Turks (often the better defenders), Khuzestan Arabs forced into exile by the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war (who tend to be good in attacking positions), and youth from the popular quarters and southern suburbs of Tehran.
