Despite international tensions and attacks from the United States, Iran will participate in the 2026 World Cup, said ambassador Reza Zabib. He emphasized Iran's right to be present at the tournament, paying tribute to recent victims. Mehdi Taj, the president of the Iranian Football Federation, expressed concerns about the impact of the conflict on the national team. There was also discussion about the possible replacement of Iran in the competition, with Iraq having the highest chances. In a notable coincidence, the FIFA+ channel broadcast the Iran - USA match from the 2022 World Cup, which sparked speculation about a message from the international body. It remains to be seen how the sports leadership in Iran will react following these events.
