With only a few days remaining until the 2026 Men's World Cup, a key question remains unanswered: what about the rights of fans who want to attend TeamMelli matches? Iranian fans are effectively unable to obtain U.S. visas, despite holding match tickets. faz.net/aktuell/sport/fussba…

Former “#TeamMelli” captain #MasoudShojaei, one of the few key supporters of the women's Stadium campaign, has had his assets seized by the Iranian regime for backing Iranians’ human rights. Female football captain #ZahraGhanbari has also had her assets confiscated.

Last year Iran men's football team got qualified for the worldcup on this day and not only @FIFAcom didn't do anything when Iranian fans banned entirely from the worldcup, Now the team has to play in a country that invaded Iran, killing lots of innocent people including children.

On the first day of Iranian year, under bombs and facing inside oppressions and with internet shutdown, It's difficult to be hopeful specially for upcoming worldcup! Wish all the fans and specially women, some speedy healing and safety in this new year. #Nowruz

Azadi Arena the place where we were last allowed to watch the men's national volleyball team in 2014 has been destroyed in the bombardment. In those same years, Khamenei’s office ordered that women be banned from attending volleyball matches.
تصاویری که منابع حکومتی با این شرح منتشر کرده‌‌اند: "سالن ۱۲ هزار نفری ورزشگاه آزادی #تهران در پی حمله آمریکا و اسرائیل تخریب شد.همچین مجموعه خوابگاهی مربوط به فدراسیون دوچرخه‌سواری نیز تخریب شد." پنجشنبه ۱۴ اسفند #Iran #Tehran

What changed from Iran women's football team from the first and second match?! True, pressure from the Islamic Republic regime on players and coaches and probably on their families. Such a shame in this critical situation. #WAC2026 #IRNAUS

FIFPRO is deeply concerned by the prolonged detention of professional footballer Amirhossein Ghaderzadeh in Iran and by information suggesting that additional players may be affected. We call for clarity regarding the reasons for these detentions, assurances about their safety and well-being, and transparency from the relevant authorities. We stand in solidarity with all players facing detention or repression.

More than 20 athletes and coaches and referee got killed in Iran's January Massacre. Unbelievable how there's zero accountability and immediate attention to this brutality.

Massacre happened in Iran and with following internet shutdown, kept all of us in an immense shock and sadness. Many fans and also athletes got killed: faz.net/aktuell/sport/sportp… We encourage fans and human rights organizations to pressure on FIFA and IOC for accountability.

For a host of a mega sport event, this is a terrible news and it never happened before. FIFA should secure a way for fans to enjoy football, this is a major discrimination toward fan's right.

As Trump keeps adding countries to his travel ban -- now ~20% of the world -- he seems in his racist and Islamophobic way to pretend that Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia don't exist (except for white South Africans, Israelis, and rich Gulf Arabs). nytimes.com/2025/12/16/us/po…

📢 Trump just won the #FIFA Peace Prize, a decision that ignores his attacks on democracy, global cooperation and human rights.

Iran men's football team in world cup 2026 will be at some US stadiums (LA and Seattle) which means Iranian fans living outside of US probably will be travel ban from watching these matches. Very sad news specially for women who for decades were ban from watching football. #FIFA

Khuzestan province has one of the ultra fan bases in #Iran and all these years women couldn't enter to stadium. Yesterday finally the Yellows saw their female Ultras too.
ما دخترهای خوزستانی طرفدار فوتبال همیشه با حسرت از داخل ماشین و خیابان به ورزشگاه تختی نگاه می‌کردیم. حالا دخترهای زردپوش وارد ورزشگاه تختی آبادان شدند و صنعت نفت برنده شده.

Finally after 3 years of this incident, female fans in Mashhad could enter to stadium in a few numbers, during a league match.
Iran's authorities not only didn't let women enter to stadium to watch #WCQ match between Iran & Lebanon, Pepper sprayed them too. What else should happens to stop this barbaric behavior? @FIFAcom

Today marks the 6th anniversary of #Iranian women entering stadiums with tickets for the first time. We hope to see all stadiums fully open to women, with equal access to tickets.
