[edit] International career
He was a little-known player beyond the Hafezieh Stadium in his native city of Shiraz, until his selection for the Iranian national under-23 football team.
Zare was drafted to mend the defenses of the Iranian U-23s, after Hossein Faraki took over the coaching job. Along with Zare, Faraki also invited Alavi and the duo did not disappoint. In fact his performance was so solid that Iran's coach Branko Ivankovic invited both of the players to the squad for the game against Jordan in June 2004. He made his debut on July 20, 2004 in the match against Thailand. He was a part of Irans 2004 Asian Cup squad. During the quarter finals against China he received a controversial red card after lightly pushing an a player on the other team who fell over holding his face.
Zare was set to play for Iran at the 2006 World Cup, but after damaging ligaments in his right knee, he was replaced by Moharram Navidkia.[4][5] After losing World Cup due to injury, he was not regular a part of Team melli. After world cup, Amir Ghalenoei became Iran's coach. Ghalenoei called up Zare for his 30 men list for 2007 AFC Asian Cup, but he did not select for Iranian squad. When Ali Daei became Team melli's coach, he called up Zare again[6] and used him as a left defender in starting line up in World cup 2010 first round qualifications.
