Funny how some teams get asked about football… and others get asked to explain the world.
Shoutout to the Iran team for carrying that weight.

From @TheAthleticFC: Iran captain Mehdi Taremi has criticised FIFA and its president Gianni Infantino for their handling of his country’s World Cup campaign. “It’s a disaster World Cup; a disaster,” he told reporters on Friday. https://t.co/UCXa8Qb4N0
We can map our lives in World Cups. Everyone will have a story of why and how you got hooked. It is emotional, it is identity, and it is belonging to something bigger.
Which is why we have to fight for it. Fight against it being abused, altered, and turned into a branding exercise and money-spinning scheme.
It’s the World Cup, not ‘The FIFA’. It’s commercial space not hydration breaks for player welfare.
It’s not “equal conditions for every team.” Ask Iran.

Such a blot on this World Cup. FIFA lets the US do their thing
Iran manager Amir Ghalenoei- "We spent so much time in the air commuting, they didn't even give us time to recover. After the game today, they said to us you have to leave immediately. It's very important for us to have time for recovery, but we've been told to return to our camp in Tijuana and we are really troubled by that. I think perhaps our team is the most repressed team in the whole World Cup."

'In this World Cup’s great convergence of 48 nations, one is conspicuously not receiving the same treatment as the other 47.
'And however much Gianni Infantino might try to posture as the ultimate peacemaker, he must surely see that the longer this problem persists, the graver the implications will be for his tournament’s integrity.'
