Iran's national football team is seriously considering the possibility of withdrawal from the upcoming 2026 World Cup. This is reported by the authoritative Spanish publication Marca.
The main reason for such a radical decision is the location of the bouts of the tournament.
After the calendar starts, the Iranians can play all their group stage matches in the United States of America (indoors, at stadiums near Los Angeles and Seattle).
According to Dzherel's information, between US military operations and deep geopolitical tensions, the princes of Persia are ready to travel to the World Cup, as their matches will not be rescheduled until.
Following the results of the draw, Iran lost to one quartet with the teams of Belgium, New Zealand and Egypt in Group G.
Guess what, it became known earlier that in Israel all sports events were sold out.
