These are the Shah's representatives who are sponsored by the Anti-Iran powers. They have been failed previously and will fail this time too. Iran is a great country a powerful nation

Birthplace alone does not define nationality. In this case, they were born in Iran, but their loyalty and mindset have been shaped by Mossad, not by Iranian culture or identity

"Iranians" that Support the US Israeli Regime that Attack oure country are Not Iranians

@anemoland7290

@

Football and politics are 2 different entities. All those players who playing for the national team did the leader of Iran hand pick them??? These are players that stood out for their respective clubs and were rewarded by being apart of their nation’s World Cup squad. Fxck that polarization sh!t u wanting the team to win doesn’t mean u want the Iran leaders to win
