Do you want Iran to advance, most diaspora iroonis on Twitter want this team to fail
I’m torn. On one hand mixing football and politics is stupid, but on the other hand regime have every interest in distracting from what’s going on. This is how they celebrated today’s win:
Regime even arrested Voria Ghafouri, a former NT player with the bs charge of “insulting National team”! Advancing from the group, especially at US’ expense, will take propaganda to grotesque levels.
So I don’t really know what I want.
P.S. wanting this team to fail is not limited to diaspora Iranians. I know many within Iran that want them to fail as well.
