According to the British “Sky Sport” network, the Ukrainian Football Association formally requested that Iran not be allowed to compete in the World Cup “Qatar 2022” by submitting to the International Football Federation (FIFA).
In addition to breaking FIFA rules that require its members to uphold human rights and combat prejudice, the Ukrainian Federation also justified its request by asserting that Iran supplies Russia with weaponry.
Notable is that the World Cup draw placed the Iranian national team in the second group, which has a political undertone because it also contains the Islamic Republic of Iran, the United States, England, and Wales.
For the first time in its history, Iran is attempting to advance past the group stage.
