According to foreign media sources, because Iran refused to let female fans watch the conflict, FIFA is asking about the relevant situation, and Iran does not rule out the possibility of being kicked out of the World Cup.
In the round of 40 against Cambodia, 3,500 female fans entered the stadium to witness Iran's 14-0 victory. It was the first time in 40 years that Iranian female fans had entered Tehran's Azadi Stadium to watch a football match.
Iran, who faced Lebanon at home in the final round of the Round of 12, had already qualified, selling a total of 12,500 tickets to the outside world, of which 2,000 tickets were reserved for female fans. However, on the day of the match, the on-site security personnel refused to allow female fans who had already bought tickets to enter the stadium, and thousands of female fans protested outside the stadium by being expelled by police with pepper spray, which caused a commotion.
Now, FIFA is already asking about it. Russia has been disqualified by FIFA from the World Cup play-offs, so FIFA also has the right to kick Iran, who is No. 1 in Group A of the Round of 12, out of the World Cup.
Italian media Sport Mediaset analyzed that if Iran is kicked out of the World Cup, then FIFA may consider letting the top FIFA team make up for the World Cup, then Italy's hopes come. In the latest edition of the FIFA rankings, Italy is ranked 6th in the world, and the five teams in front of them have already qualified for direct competition.
Fans hit back: "Thinking too much, it should be North Macedonia to make up for it." If Iran is really kicked out of the World Cup, it is likely that the United Arab Emirates, who is 3rd in Group A, will directly advance to the finale. ”
