After 24 years, the United States and Iran will meet again at the World Cup, which will be a major attraction of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
I don't know if this year's encounter will be a special scene like 24 years ago.
At the 1998 World Cup in France, Germany, the former Yugoslavia, the United States and Iran entered the same group.
In the second round of the group stage, the United States and Iran met.
According to FIFA rules, the handshake between the players of the two sides before the game should be that Team B goes to Team A.
In that game, Team A was Team A and Team Iran was Team B.
It was supposed to be the Iranian players who took the initiative to shake hands with the players of the American team.
But because of international relations, the Iranian top brass is reluctant.
An Iranian-born FIFA staff member worked in it, and in the end, the U.S. team, which didn't want to stalemate over the process, compromised and agreed to let them take the initiative to shake hands with Iranian players.
In the face of the generosity of the American team, the Iranian side also gave a gift in courtesy.
As the players shook hands before the game, the Iranian players presented flowers to every American player on the field. The players from both sides also took a group photo before the start of the match.
