Italy’s Last Chance: The Unexpected World Cup 2026 Twist That Could Rewrite Their Fate
It’s not beyond the realms of possibility that Iran’s authorities elect to withdraw their team from the World Cup or even that Donald Trump makes a play to block their involvement.
That FIFA would be in no position to do anything about that is shameful and FIFA president Gianni Infantino‘s nauseating proximity to the White House will become a case study in how not to keep politics out of football.
There will also be practical implications if Iran won’t or can’t play their World Cup matches against New Zealand, Belgium and Egypt in the summer. All three Group G fixtures are scheduled to be played in the United States.
