FIFA President Gianni Infantino, during his opening remarks at the 76th FIFA Congress in Vancouver, began by stating that Iran will participate in the 2026 World Cup — and could even face the USA. He clearly understands what football fans want.

Referees can now make sanction of players who cover their mouths to hide potential abuse, and those who leave the pitch in protest.
The road ahead isn’t easy, but it’s encouraging to see leadership taking responsibility.
