The Iranian national team may not go to the World Cup in Qatar.

Iran’s national team may not appear in the World Cup, which starts in a month. It should be noted that the national team of this country made it through the qualifying sieve by qualifying for the final part of the Mundial.

However, Iranian footballers themselves do not want to participate in the world championship. The players issued a statement demanding the suspension of their local federation, which would automatically prevent them from traveling to Qatar.

Football players are not happy with the fact that women’s rights are being violated in the country. The players’ letter was published by journalist Masih Alinejad.

“FIFA has banned Russia from participating in international competitions due to the invasion of Ukraine and violation of human rights. We respect this position of FIFA, and we hope that it will not tolerate the senseless killing and torture of thousands of innocent civilians. We ask you Iranian athletes to apply the same decision to the Islamic Republic of Iran.” message Alinejad.

Remember that the Iranian team is in a group with the teams of England, Wales and the United States of America.
