'It's a disaster World Cup,' Iran's football captain Mehdi Taremi says
Video Overview & Insights
Iran's national football team captain, Mehdi Taremi, was frustrated over the difficulties that the team faced throughout the World Cup, describing it as a "disaster" of a sporting event.
Disgraceful conduct by FIFA and the United States.
"It’s a disaster World Cup; a disaster," Taremi told reporters following the match against Egypt.
"I mean, FIFA, they have to solve every problem here, but unfortunately, they could not solve it since the beginning," Taremi stated.
Fifa=mafia and rigged games smh
He added that the Iranian team faced a number of issues due to FIFA's mishandling and US pressure that forced Iran to play at a disadvantage.
"We don’t have our logistics people here. They don’t have a visa," Taremi said. "How is it possible we always have to travel from Tijuana? We love the people in Tijuana. We love Mexico. They are humble people, and we love them, but as a professional player in a professional competition, it’s not right."
The jews did something with the ball and we missed the penalty. And the team should get atleast one month for recovery . Both the linesmen were mossad. It was a disaster world cup ,we should get atleast 10 mins for prayer time during every match.
Taremi stated that the event was "not fair," stating that, regardless of FIFA's position on the matter, the troubles faced by the Iranian players were something unacceptable.
"Our opinion is, it’s not fair. Is it fair for FIFA? OK, good to them. But it’s not fair," Taremi said. "Who wants to help us? If they want us to be out, then OK; let’s get out. But that’s not fair. We don’t have recovery or logistics people to help us. We always complain about these things, but no one helps, no one."
Iranian players they’re not criminals like Trump

@noossyifyDisgusting. Nothing but greed
@MBison-vm6gqUS have shown they are such poor sports. No class at all.
@steveg4334Our love always with great IRAN. 🇧🇩
@nuramin6212Look at those videos on the international community reactions to visiting the US. I don't think that it was the US that blocked anyone. If it was, they are currently at war with each other.
@thomaspgreen6302Shame on FIFA & the U.S. governement.
@melelmo2600They cheated Iran at that World Cup 2026.
@pawemalinowski2422The Mullahs they'll sort it
@grahamevans-q9sPoor dude, afraid to speak up. He doesn't want to end in guantanamo or in a jail in el salvador. So much for the land of the free. What a disgusting USA country is and has always been. Just now showing their true colours
@kerolokerokeroloSport cannot be politik.This so unfair!!Disgusting behaviour !!!
@pierreputica8894I will help .fuck fifa.swissyland must be uncoverd
@iryboyHAHAHA You are not good enough and you want to blame others for it LOL Your Jihad can't help you here
@IPW133_MOT_PierreCanada and Mexico are also hosts. This selective outrage against America is political nonsense. Complain to your own government for being oppressive, war-hungry islamist terrorists who promise the destruction of the entire world about having issues with your visas for the US.
Focus on yourselves, focus on your own games. Nobody wanted you out. That’s just how the whole thing works. 3 points just didn’t cut it for most teams. Always playing victim, loser mentality.
Very unfair to Iran , how come FIFA gives the world cup organization to countries who don't want guests not fans and discriminates amongst teams and fans of different countries
@BillionViewedVideos-x8yThey came to play ball...Our molester embarrasses us yet again.
@davidmcdonald77Амерканский котоличиский пидорасов и евро пидорасов нодо ядирний бомбим захуйярит ❤❤❤❤❤❤
@дашакети-ю3гI’m cheering for you Iran.
@melaniemaec1No surprise, they're playing behind curtains.....politics as usual
@nikenratnasih3533Political shouldn't be mixed with sports.
@ionchira5448Come on! That Islamic Republic team does not represent the Iranian people 45000 and much more of them were killed openly by the regime within two nights on Jan 8-9, 2026.
@james-persiaThis guy is complete BS and how many ignorant people there are commenting. As a country at war with the host country (USA). They were given a special VISA, based in Tajuana and can come into the US to play on a 48 hour period, then return to Mexico, simple. Yet Iran keeps arriving 2 days before a match and then expects another day to "recuperate". So, the choice is come 1 day before match and stay the day after to recuperate, or come 2 days before and have to leave right away. If the US had allowed the VISA violation, Iran would crow how scared the US were to call them on it and how they can violate whatever rules they like. Now that they are being held to the rules agreed to for playing, they're just whining about their own bad choices!
As to his little slight about logistics people, originally only the political/theocratic advisers were banned form VISAs, then one of them tried to re-apply as a physio trainer, so then all staff, logistics/medical/coaching were all evaluated for potential unwanted spies, terrorists and political agents/advisors, and a few more got rejected for not being what they claimed and merely agents of the regime to keep an eye on the players and staff. If they didn't try to fraudulently infiltrate bad actors, there would be no problem. At least their 7 year old wives weren't allowed VISAs! (Mohammed's wife was 7 when married and he waited until she was 9 to consummate the marriage.)
FIFA and FIFA president are fully corrupt and they know it. They are a disgrace for how they have treated the Iranian team. FIFA are criminals. They have already fixed the World cup results and this is why Iran lost. Not because they did anything wrong. They did EVERYTHING RIGHT.
Regardless the Iranian team is the best looking team of all world cup teams!! They are all so handsome!
FIFA IS RIGGED , IT ALWAYS WAS AND IT WILL ALWAYS BE A DISASTER . WELL DONE IRAN !!!!
@Eternal-FistBunch of babies 👶
@EmotoOregonIt’s a great world cup. Well done USA, Canada and Mexico. At least they didnt use slave labour like Qatar
@Alastair-t2yso let me get this straight a country that is govern by terror ist, that kills its own people by the thousands gets invited to the world cup???, yes it is a disaster. an evil regime that hates the West should not be allowed to participate on a world stage on the WEST.
@queenpeach7865This was simply mean spirited.💔💔
@barbarathomas5938La fifa est corropu
@rayanroumani563You back to be human bombs for your "supreme" leader!!!!
@Fangmia-j7iThis team has performed very well despite every challenge. Politics should have stayed out of Sports. It's shame that FIFA didn't do anything to help. The team has our respect despite the results.
@Rekik-DamtewFeel bad for Iran. Our country has no shame. This is no way to treat your guest who you invite into your home.
@SoyBoySean-dc6wkIran's World Cup was not a disaster. It was cruel and heartbreaking. The Iranian team represented themselves well and persevered through extraordinary difficulties.
