Born in the United States, he represented the Iran national team.

Background

[edit]

Steven Beitashour was born to Edward and Pari Beitashour in San Jose, California, and played youth soccer for Fremont Fury.[4][5][6] He has an older brother, Tony, and two sisters, Tina and Stephanie.[3][5] His parents are both from Iran and moved to the United States in the 1960s.[5][7][8] His father, an electrical engineer, played soccer for San Francisco State University before working for Apple.[3][9] Beitashour is of Assyrian Christian descent from his father's side and Shia Muslim Persian descent from his mother's side, enjoying support from both communities in the United States.[8] He has Iranian-American dual citizenship,[7][10] and is married to his wife named Karlie.[11] The couple announced the birth of their son Brayden on February 1, 2019, and their son Zayne in May 2022.[12][13]

Club career

[edit]

College and amateur

[edit]

Beitashour graduated from Leland High School in 2005 where his number 3 jersey was later retired, becoming only the second Leland athlete after Pat Tillman to have a jersey retired.[5][14][15] Steven was the captain of his high school's varsity team and was their leading goalscorer his junior and senior years in the number 10 role.[5] He was a four-year letter-winner and was a two-time offensive player of the year before being a divisional first-team selection.[16] In his graduating year at Leland, Beitashour received the inaugural Pat Tillman Award, given to a Bay Area student for outstanding achievements in both athletics and academics.[5]

He went on to play four years of college soccer at San Diego State University after receiving a scholarship, redshirting his freshman season.[3][4] He majored in communication with a minor in biology at San Diego State University, choosing it over several schools including San Jose State University, University of California, Santa Cruz and Notre Dame de Namur University.[4][5][9] Coach Lev Kirshner moved Beitashour to the right-back position in order to utilize his quick speed and one-on-one defending abilities.[5] In his senior year at State, Steven earned an all-Pac-10 honorable mention.[5][17] During his late college years, Beitashour also played for the San Jose Frogs in the Premier Development League.[18][19] He graduated from San Diego State in December 2009.[5]

Professional

[edit]

San Jose Earthquakes

[edit]

Beitashour was drafted in the second round (30th overall) of the 2010 MLS SuperDraft by the San Jose Earthquakes, the local team that he supported as a young ball boy, becoming the second Iranian (after Khodadad Azizi) to play for the Earthquakes.[5][20] He made his professional debut on April 10, 2010, in a 2–1 win against the Chicago Fire,[21] and scored his first professional goal on April 24, 2010, against Chivas USA.[5][22] Beitashour was selected for the 2012 MLS All-Star Game and played the full 90 minutes against Chelsea in the 3–2 win.[23] The Earthquakes won the 2012 MLS Supporters' Shield with Beitashour starting in all 33 of his regular season appearances and leading the league with 110 crosses that season.[5] Following the Supporters' Shield title, Beitashour featured for the Earthquakes in the 2013–14 CONCACAF Champions League.[24] He provided 16 assists in his last 3 years with the Earthquakes, more than any other MLS defender during the same time period.[5][25]

Steven is arguably the best right back in the league. He is fantastic on the defensive side of the ball and his ability to join the attack will make him a great addition to our club.

—Whitecaps FC manager Carl Robinson on Beitashour, January 27, 2014.[26]

He's just a great guy to have in the locker room. He's always positive, he's always smiling, and he's always a guy that you want to go to battle with and fight for.

—Whitecaps FC captain Jay DeMerit on Beitashour, June 2, 2014.[5]

International career

[edit]

Eligibility

[edit]
Beitashour playing for Iran in a friendly match against Angola, May 30, 2014

Since Beitashour has Iranian Citizenship through Jus sanguinis principles, he is eligible to play for Iran.[7] Beitashour was born in the United States and is an American citizen; he thus had the choice of either playing for Iran or the United States.[10]

When asked about his choice in a 2012 interview, he stated:[10]

"I think it's a great position to be in to have two options, to say the least... I've just got to keep playing well here [for the San Jose Earthquakes]. I think that's the main thing, and good things will come from that."

Iran national team coach Carlos Queiroz began to recruit eligible players from the Iranian diaspora to reinforce the squad.[58] In June 2012, it was reported that Queiroz was interested in inviting Beitashour.[7]

United States

[edit]

Beitashour was called up for an international friendly by the United States national football team against Mexico on August 15, 2012;[59] however, he was an unused substitute.[60][5]

Coach Jürgen Klinsmann later explained about his "surprise callup":[61]

"Steven has built his case over the last couple of months and talking with Frank Yallop [Beitashour's coach at Earthquakes] and getting his information was the most important step... We are pleased to bring him in. He will be welcomed here and he'll see it is a very positive and comfortable environment where he can settle in with no problems. We are curious to see him in the couple training sessions that we have. It's not much because we have two and a half days to prepare for a game, but obviously I'd love to see him over a longer period of time. It will be curious to get his first impression."

Iran

[edit]

On October 5, 2013, Beitashour was called up to the Iran national football team by Carlos Queiroz to be part of the preliminary 27-man squad for a 2015 AFC Asian Cup qualification match against Thailand. It was initially unclear whether Beitashour would accept the invitation.[62] Two days later, it was confirmed that Beitashour had accepted the call-up and would join the squad in time for the match on October 15.[63] He made his debut in Iran's 2–1 win over Thailand, coming on as a sub for Mahini in the 76th minute.[64] His first assist came to striker Ghoochannejhad against Thailand in the away leg on November 15, helping to seal their place in the 2015 AFC Asian Cup.[65] On June 1, 2014, Beitashour was named to Iran's 2014 FIFA World Cup squad.[66] He was an unused substitute in all three matches and was not called into Iran's squad for the 2015 Asian Cup.

In May 2018, Beitashour was included in Iran's 35-man preliminary squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup but was not chosen for the final 23.[67]

Style of play

Beitashour has been praised for his crosses and his ability to get around defenders.[68][69]

Post-playing career

Following his retirement from playing professional soccer, Beitashour announced in December 2023 that he would be running a youth soccer clinic in Denver named Beita Performance Soccer.[72][73] On August 12, 2024, the San Jose Earthquakes announced that Beitashour would be the Quakes Academy’s Under-15 head coach for the 2024–25 MLS NEXT season.[74]
