Big up Ian Wright, Gary Neville, and Roy Keane for calling out what the US is doing to the World Cup. They didn’t shy away and condemned it all, including the decision to ban Omar Artan.

Officials have always had freedom of movement, and FIFA guaranteed it.

Richard Burgon just exposed the most glaring double standard in British policy

"Imagine if this weekend in London there was a Russian real estate event selling Ukrainian land. The government would ban it immediately.

Instead, we have an Israeli real estate event openly advertising the illegal sale of land in occupied Palestinian territories. The government recognizes Palestine. Why isn't this banned?"

All the worst, mate. @Sanchooo10

You’re hosting the biggest global sporting event in the world. If you don’t want people from all parts of the world entering the country, don’t bid for the WORLD CUP.

🤦‍♂️

[Joy Bhattacharjya @joybhattacharj]

This is ridiculous. Part of the guarantees that all FIFA World Cup hosts have to sign is the free movement of all participating teams and officials through the hosting counties. I know this because it was part of the guarantees the Indian government had to sign before hosting the FIFA U17 World Cup in 2017.
This sounds like a last minute compromise where the US could not outright refuse Iran, but still needed to save face and make it as difficult as possible for them.
That is an unfair disadvantage for Iran and should be condemned by all football lovers.

This IDF soldier who shot a baby dead could be a British citizen. We would have no way of knowing.

That’s why Zack is right. We need to make sure any British national complicit in war crimes is held to account.

[Skribz @SkribzSt]

The fact that people were more outraged at the world cup being in Qatar than they are with it being held in America is actually insane.

[Leyla Hamed @leylahamed]

This is clear discrimination and political interference in sport. No team should be made to compete under conditions no other country would ever accept.

FIFA has a lot to answer for.

Iraqi striker Ayman Hussein flies 12 hours to the United States, lands in Chicago, and is then detained for 7 hours by authorities for questioning.

Not a single news outlet sharing this btw

Everyday I read something that makes me less excited for this World Cup. Shame on FIFA for picking such cruel and greedy hosts.

[tag @mxdric]

Russia 2018 and Qatar 2022 hosted the World Cup and used it as an opportunity to clean up their image and show the world how welcoming they are

Donald Trump is quite literally doing the opposite, and FIFA are cowards for allowing this to happen

[Leyla Hamed @leylahamed]

We all knew these situations were going to happen, and so did FIFA. Yet they still allowed the World Cup to go ahead in the U.S. They are not receiving anywhere near the level of scrutiny they should.

‘Seizes castle’

Is the BBC Israel’s PR firm?

just look at him trying so hard to force that smile.

on behalf of the entire league, we appreciate you ruining this, PSG 😂😂

Tuchel, Ancelotti y Luis Enrique ganaron 5 de las últimas 6 ediciones de champions

En ese mismo periodo todos entrenaron a Kylian Mbappe y el nunca la ganó

[Out Of Context Erling Haaland @ErlingNoContext]

Erling Haaland you legend 🤣

[Minnesota Sports Fan @HendrickD82]

All this talk to complete 4 passes and 0 dribbles in a CL final.

*Declan Rice passes the ball five yards*

Ally McCoist: “That is exceptional.”

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

Arsenal have set the record for the lowest possession percentage for a team playing in a Champions League final (since records began in 2003-04).

The previous lowest record was also Arsenal, set in the 2006 Champions League final, which they played 72 minutes with 10 men.

[FPL Frasier @FPLfrasier]

Declan Rice chased the referee all around the pitch shouting at him. If this was a Portuguese midfielder, English media would label him as a moaner. For Rice though, it’s passion personified.
