A media conference to preview the USA’s must-win World Cup game against Iran ended abruptly on Sunday, after just one question was allowed from the Iranian media.
After a testy presser where defenders Tim Ream and Walker Zimmermann were asked repeated questions about the current human rights situation in Iran, the US national team’s Director of Communications, Michael Kammarman, wrapped up proceedings after a critical comment from Iranian journalist Shervin Taheri.
The last meeting between the two nations at the 1998 World Cup in France, when Iran beat the USA 2-1, is dubbed “the most politically charged game in World Cup history”.

All the journalists are Iranian state journalists so ofc the questions will always be loaded and more of a statement than a question lol
Why is this so called journalist not covering his country arresting, torturing and killing protesters? Oh wait, that would only get him arrested, tortured and killed.
SMH… Dude was clearly trying to get under folks skin. The exchange isn't included in this clip, but hats off to the team captain who held his composure much better than I would have (based on how the reporter was talking to him). I love how he said "black people" right after complaining about dude mispronouncing the name of the country…. I woulda said "Well sir, you should learn that it's 'AFRICAN AMERICANS' not 'BLACK people', since you out here trying to be so politically correct all the sudden". Works both ways
stupid iranian journalist
Coward usa don't wanna answer more questions.
They should of asked USA how many innocent lives have their government taken over 100 yrs. Over a million.
Well, what do do expect from an idiot? My question to the journalist clown, how old were you in 2022 when the USA beat Iran’s a*s? 🤣
The morality police forced him to ask that dumb question
He said MLS CUP like it was some sort of dig. The world will always be jealous of US
US answered on the pitch. The best men won.
"How old were you when the woman was arrested for not wearing her hijab incorrectly and subsequently died in police custody?"

Dumbest reporter and most irrelevant question ever.
Those so called Iranian reporters are not a reporters and they are pure terrorist and belong to terrorist organization called IRGC. SHAME ON QATAR to let terrorist organizations roam freely in their country.
Down with terrorists and child killers regime of Iran.
These journalist were really disrespectful.
Salty as fuck Iranians
He should be more concern about what is actually happening in Iran right now, not about pronunciation and BLM.
Journalist: How old were you and you are such a bad person
The woke bull shit by saying, I think I did a lot of headers to remember last year. He is for sure a leftist. 🤮
bro no one cares about this. there will be a time in the future when iran will change its ways be more like the west in terms of human rights. simple as that. no one will look back at this in a non football topic.

Respect for the players for being respectfull and not falling in a trap.
