Zob Ahan beat Al Naft at WASL-West

TEHRAN, Apr. 13 (MNA) – Zob Ahan basketball team from Iran pulled away late to beat Al Naft, 95-83, to reach the WASL-West Asia Semi-Finals, Wednesday night at the Azadi Basketball Hall in Tehran.

Sajjad Mashayekhi and Arsalan Kazemi bannered the home team's 11-0 finishing kick that took the wind out of the visitors' sails, making sure to close it out strong as they applied the lessons from that Game 2 defeat exactly a week ago in Baghdad.

They won the series 2-1 to earn the right to face Gorgan in the semis. The long-time Iranian foes will start their WASL rivalry next Thursday.
