“John Herdman’s squad refused to train on both Friday and Saturday in an apparent protest over compensation and player perks for Qatar 2022”

That sort of hypocrisy exists everywhere there are politicians.

Anyone who has watched Iran in the world cup...basically every Iranian, has indirectly contributed to Fifa and consequently IRI. Anyone who disagreed with the Iran-Canada friendly should not watch TM on TV anymore. And all Canadians who disagreed with Iran friendly should not watch the WC either.

Dawgs i find it hard to get in gear on a guy who lost his wife and daughter.

I dunno, like I love iranian football, really want us to win in the world cup and hate political influences but the dude lost his family.... I mean I honestly don't know how I would react in that situation - I would probably flip out, break my knuckles on a wall or something, and maybe even rebel against everything I thought i cared about before, i dunno..... sorry

This probably was already said, so I apologize if I'm repeating the point. But the opportunity to protest at the stadium and in the stadium with signs and chants that would have been seen and heard in millions of Iranian homes, I feel, would have been so much more impactful than forcing the cancelation of this match. Maybe it would have created a dialogue in Iran about the issues rather than polarize it further by making things a West vs. Iran narrative.

Also I hate that I'm still thinking about this subject but I'm just frustrated about things

Counter-argument: If terrorist I.R. didn't shoot down a plane, then the match would have likely been played today against Canada just like in 17 August 1997 and 04 June 1999 (I didn't mention 26 April 2001 because that was played in Egypt) given that the regime back then was the same as it is now.

Loving this turmoil in the Canadian camp. Karma is a bitch you bitch ass Canadians. You derailed Iran's preparation and plans for June and now you are suffering the same fate.

[Nokhodi]

Lol. Canada’s players are going to get the CSA sued.

So why did the Canadians world class game with Panama get cancelled?

It is now clear why the Iran match was cancelled. I hope this becomes a black mark for Canadian football. Still minnows trying to play with men.

Canada has to be one of the most deceptive western regimes ever. Their weasel Trudeau shakes hands with Zarif and then you hate Iranian football? Western hypocrites!!

Thank trudeau for turning us intona banana republic

[Babak500]

Another question remains: Why did Massih and other diaspora online warriors not yell and cry when their weasel Trudeau shake hands with Zarif, yet they become super online fighters against Iranian football?

Lol what does Trudeau have to do with CSA not paying the players their bonuses? Government gave soccer Canada $3 million.
