Irans sports minister has declared that the country cannot join the World Cup due to safety concerns amid its conflict with the U.S. The U.S. killed Irans supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in an ongoing war. Iran was set to open against New Zealand on June fifteenth at SoFi Stadium, followed by games against Belgium and Egypt. President Donald Trump expressed little concern, but FIFA officials expect Irans team to be allowed entry into the U.S. The situation remains fluid, but the World Cup hosted by the U.S., Canada, and Mexico pushes forward with high hopes for smooth global participation.
