"In a statement on Wednesday to The Athletic, FIFA said it considers this World Cup to be an “inclusive event” "
Meanwhile Iran’s team has to travel back and forth to Tijuana every night to sleep because they’re not allowed to stay in the US
They may have given him a fake award, but that’s not enough to tell the US what to do. The federal government is responsible for the Iranians.
Wow FIFA has managed to be slightly less shitty than two oppressive regimes.
The imperium of man has strange beginnings.
These are indeed very strange times.
Isn’t this old news? The match is already over.

Yeah I’m questioning why OP posted it today.
Iran and Egypt can go suck a dick.
And then kill themselves in retaliation for it. Yes.
That’s basically all there is to it.
Fuck their bigotry and everybody else’s too.Intolerance is the only important thing to be intolerant of.
<batman voice> But if you intolerate an intolerant, the number of intolerants in the world remains the same - mostly because they’re stupid asshats and won’t change their ways
You want to play on the world stage you get to play with all the rules, even the ones you don’t like.
I like how this FIFA quote can be taken one of two ways:
Fans of all sexual orientations and gender identities are welcome at matches and events.
If they don’t like it, they can go home. 🤷♀️
