The Iranian Football Federation has announced that the travel ban is being applied to their team and that they will file a complaint with FIFA.
The Iranian Football Federation said that the team’s preparations are affected due to the restrictions imposed by the organizers of the event.
The spokesman of the Iranian Football Federation announced that they have requested the organizers to allow the Los Angeles team two days before the game, which is scheduled for the second match between Iran and Belgium on Sunday.
According to the spokesperson, the organizers rejected our request to go to America 2 days ago.
The spokesman said that although the team’s preparation program was sent in advance and technical reasons were cited, the organizers were once again facing restrictions.
On the other hand, Andrew Giuliani, FIFA executive director of the White House, says that Iran was already informed that the team was allowed to come to America only 1 day before the match and should return the same evening after the match.
In the World Cup, the Iranian team had to leave Los Angeles the same night after the match against New Zealand. Iran’s next two matches in the World Cup will be held in America against Belgium and Egypt.
