Before the tournament, the Iranian team have been supportive of the protests in Iran over women’s rights and the struggle against an oppressive regime.
Hopefully we’ll see that again during the WC. And a famous victory or even a battling draw would give them quite a platform and help protect their status.
So if England lose, at least it might be for the greater good. Much more likely Iran can get a decent result against Wales or USA, of course, but probably nowhere near the same impact as a result. |  |
