VIDEO/ The silence that is going around the world, the protest of the players of Iran may face serious consequences

2022-11-21 17:22:30, Sport CNA

Today's match between England and Iran in the World Cup has brought a very powerful message of solidarity. If the English gave up the "One Love" captain's armband, fearing FIFA sanctions on footballers and would keep it, the Iranians did not hesitate to protest against those who govern their country, even though this could have very serious consequences, beyond sports ones.

Iran's football players, at the time of the national anthems, decided to remain silent, while many Iranian fans in the stadium displayed anti-regime slogans or fans were seen without headscarves in support of this team.

A clear signal of defiance that forced the Iranian national television to interrupt the live broadcast of the said challenge for a few moments.

International media reports that the players were warned against such a gesture. But names like Taremi and Jahanbaksh had publicly stated that what they saw every day in the media with the events in their country where the protests were being suppressed with unparalleled violence, were unacceptable and that the players should be made to hear their voices.
