The Iran national football team went to the USA and united with Infantino. The FIFA president said the world needs love, not hate. Iran entered the USA without incident.
What happened?
Infantino commented on the criticism of the reception of the Iran national football team in the USA. He said football is about unity, not division.
Why it matters?
Iran's last result was a 1-1 draw with Egypt and they remain unbeaten in their last 5 games. Infantino responded to the controversial refereeing decisions and the case of Fularin Balogan.
What's next?
The Iran national football team has remarkably proven the unity of the two countries this summer. Infantino asked FIFA opponents to take a moment to reflect and look at faces, eyes, and feelings.
