The head coach of Iran’s football team said his players were being “oppressed” He said, the team had originally been cleared to stay in the US for one night, but that they had instead been ordered to leave moments after the game ended. “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.” https://t.co/ZkO0txGTTr
ESPN implies that Gianni Infantino personally told Iran plans had changed and they had to leave the US for Mexico immediately after last night’s game in LA, leaving no time whatsoever for recovery.
Iran’s next game is in… LA.
