Iran's World Cup ticket allocation pulled days before kickoff
Iran's football federation says FIFA has revoked its fan ticket allocation for the group stage, a move that lands in the middle of a long-running dispute over which flag Iranian supporters are allowed to fly.
Desk note: The wire on this story is so far limited to the federation's account and the absence of a FIFA statement. Monexus is treating the revocation as confirmed by the federation and Reuters, and the flag dispute as the leading explanatory frame, while reserving judgment on the cause until FIFA publishes a reason.
