FIFA should be protested for caving to US pressure, and refusals to grant Iran's entire Team Visas and Access, for the game. FIFA has betrayed its historical position, taken in the 1960's - when the UK tried unsuccessfully to harass the DPRK's Team. FIFA are traitors to their past positions of integrity, like these Monarchists and Z👁️onists are traitors to Iran.
@anotherworldviewispossiblei wonder how much they were paid
@twiztid571I stand with the Iranian people
@ritamarcus3812Who cares
@JohnDog818Good game team Iran
@hayabusahaizuka8835I support Iran ❤
@rubiferrer2419All football team members are hired by the Islamic republic. They are not the representative of Iranian people...They are the supporter of the evil government.
@FreeHuman-f7xEveryone complains about everything nowadays
@hitmanm818Iran sucks and so does pro soccer.
@jameskrobar7814I normally despise bringing politics into sports events, but in this case it is highly relevant and the people involved are all entirely respectful as far as I can see.
@toditronThis is not our national team. The Islamic Republic is a terrorist regime that has taken our country hostage. Long live Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi.
@AzhrealLol
@gumbytronThe signs say they want a secular nation.. I think they’re pro Trump protesters lmfao this doesn’t even make sense to post
@Puffer1999LA Iranians are mostly kicked out corrupt Iranians
@fuadahmed3638Mexico a recibido a todos los equipos de futbol con Mariachi y mucha fiesta!!.🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@Lupita-h90Jóvenes del equipo IRANÍ, MÉXICO los espera con los brazos abiertos!. Mi casa es su casa 🏠😻😻😻😻😻😻👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@Lupita-h90what do the iranian athletes have to do with their protest?
@263fjbenitez04FIFA ruined all the effort people had put into watching the game, supported the child-killing regime of Iran, and insulted the spectators.
@Habib135-s6zWow only a dozen protestors
@anonymoushuman8647Any other group of this size would not even receive the media attention. There hasn’t been a greater time of unity with Iranians who all reasonably feel attacked with their infrastructure destroyed and schools bombed. I actually love these idiots because my cousin’s in Iran look at them like they are insane. Reza Palavi absolutely tarnished his credibility with his constant display of support of Isreal and constant bashing of Iranian civilians like these soccer players calling the terrorist. His cultish supporters can’t make his case any better showing their true selves during moments like this. Keep up the great work.
@JohnDoe-lm6or2 Sides to what this flag represents:
Political Repression and Human Rights Abuses: The Shah ruled as an autocrat, systematically suppressing political dissent, opposition parties, and free speech. His ruthless secret police, SAVAK, were widely feared for arbitrarily arresting, censoring, and torturing dissidents and political prisoners.Forced Westernization and Cultural Insensitivity: His "White Revolution" initiatives and modernization policies were frequently perceived as aggressive, forced Westernization. Mandates—such as the banning of traditional Islamic veils by his father and later state-sponsored secularization efforts—offended conservative Iranians and the powerful Shia clergy, who viewed these moves as attacks on their religious and cultural identity
As long as it is not Americans of Iranian descent then I guess that’s a OK right news media?,,,, LMAO
@davidOConnor-z3lBro you call 20 people protestors, should have been protesting Fifa and the high ticket prices sheesh
@Coolman1985The Iranian people know what’s going on in their country.The regiment have killed thousands of Iranian Christian’s..
@PrincipePrincipe-bg1msNothing orchestrated by US intelligence services here then.
Good game though, by the way.
The Iranian team received a warmer welcome from Mexicans in Tijuana than from their own people. What a shame!
@truth_teller571DON'T FORGET THis: They killed tens of thousands of Iranians in 2 days. In 2 days!
@arashparseh3077Holding the Israeli flag is not making your case... FYI
@yads5678In Tehran, right now, it's the time for the Iran-New Zealand game. No one is waiting for Iran to win. Everyone is waiting for them to lose so they can celebrate. Like in the previous game, when they lost to England and America, everyone was happy. None of the ordinary Iranians agree with this team.
@IronirezaThis isn’t Iran’s team. They made their choice, and it wasn’t the Iranian people. They looked away while 40,000 Iranians paid the price with their blood.
@RabbholeThis football team doesn’t represent Iran. They chose to stand with the devil and turned a blind eye to the blood of 40,000 Iranians.
@RabbholeThey should protest the PDF we have in the Whitehouse as well
@Vin_8833When you see Iranian flag with Yellow in the middle.. That is the old IRAN.. which gave the people freedom.
@northyland1157SoFi stadium was full of 80K fans. Most of them supporting team Iran. It was a fantastic game.
@inhokim3598imagine being asking the crazy guy in the white house to go bbommb another country while they re living so comfortable here in the us
@amalmendi746There isn't anyone protesting Iran being in California?
@trapezoid_lunaticGo Iran 🇮🇷 saludos desde Mexico 🇲🇽
@eddiereyna1155Welcome world to California now u guys see how nuts California is like these soccer players have zero power or control just watch the game
@JamesMinroesUS sent missles and bombs, unaliving Iranians.... and who attacked who?
@mototaco2132Go away. This has nothing to do with politics. I don’t agree with either side.
@braing6841To my Iranian brothers and sisters, I never voted for trump,never will for his regime, and his war is illegal and he has committed war crimes including on Venezuela. You have every right to protest ! He is the root of all evil!
@MK-su6egIranian here
This is government team not iran team and by the far the dumbest thing that FIFA done so far
And so many comment i see that literally forget that how many young innocent people died by government of iran even some soccer pro player is not in team because they protest
Absolutely. They looted the oil wealth brought it to Beverly Hills and now are complaining. Hilarious. What a bunch of idiots.
