“ This agenda makes no sense. If Iran, an Asian team, is excluded from the World Cup, how can a European country be brought in as a replacement? It completely defeats the idea of fair continental representation. Situations like this only reinforce how biased and inconsistent global decisions can be. ”

True talk. The guy pushing for this agenda is an idiot. No wonder he’s Italian by birth but an American by naturalization.

Even if Iran chooses not to participate, the second-placed nation in Iran’s qualifying group should rather replace them.

Nigerians have become a nuisance to everyone. They are inaugurating their king in sovereign countries like Ghana and South Africa. Worse, they want to be accepted as is.

You lot should stay in your country and fight for its development, rather than going elsewhere and imposing your criminal activities and mindset on others.

America must be replaced as well since Trump is putting the tournament to high risk. Creating trouble Mexico, Iran and kidnapping Maduro.

Stupid fool. What pedigree does Italy has but could not qualify through a merit-based competitive process?
If USA cannot welcome and garantee the safety of Iran in a none political football game, FIFA has to move Iran to Mexico so that play all their matches. If they were to qualify deep into the tournament, then all their matches including finals should be in either Mexico or Canada. If this cannot work, the world cup has to be cancelled or Iran automatically awarded a prize equivalent to the world cup prize.
