Soccer would not exist without immigrants. Immigrants play and coach the game, work in the stadiums, fill the stands, and make celebrations like the World Cup possible. Six of the players on the US Men's National Team are immigrants.
We will not allow ICE or anyone else to sow fear in our communities — especially at this moment. As the world comes to our city, we will stand proudly with our immigrant neighbors and reject these attacks for what they are: an attempt to divide us.
🚨|🎙️ Ian Wright has slammed the situation unfolding ahead of the World Cup:
🗣️ “I'm really laughing… but this isn't funny. Tickets are exorbitant, travel costs are high, and visas are being rejected… Is this how a host behaves?” 👀🇺🇸
“We saw how Qatar was criticized… and now? I don't hear a thing!”
So far at the 2026 FIFA Epstein Cup before a ball kicked:
- Senegal & Uzbekistan squads treated like criminals upon arrival given full cavity searches;
- Africa’s best referee sent back to Somalia despite having a diplomatic passport;
- Iraq team photographer sent back despite valid visa;
- AIPS (international sport journalist association) calling on FIFA to sort out unacceptable visa issues of African & Iranian journalists;
- 90% of Moroccan fans with tickets denied entry
- 14 members of Iran backroom staff denied visas
Not a word from Gianni ”today I feel black/gay/disabled etc” Infantino.
🚨 BREAKING! 🤯
Iran announced that FIFA decided to suddenly REVOKE THE TICKETS that corresponded to their Federation. 🇮🇷
Moreover, it was reported that Iran CANNOT STAY IN THE UNITED STATES during the World Cup, the team must enter and exit on the SAME DAY. 🛂
