Overview
Iran is set to compete in the men's FIFA World Cup in the United States starting on June 11, despite the ongoing conflict between the two countries. For Tehran, participation is a way to maintain an international presence and potentially rally national unity through sporting success. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump appears keen to avoid disruptions that could overshadow the tournament and has left the decision on Iran's participation to FIFA President Gianni Infantino.
