    If the final qualification will be determined between the winner of Bolivia against Surinam vrs Iran, how can UAE get in if they were not part of the final international play off teams.?

    That's my point too! FIFA and corruption again???

  • Martin A 1 month ago

    It's just bizarre to give a spot to UAE should Iran boycott. The spot should go to ine if the teams in the playoffs. Gianni Infantino is a very corrupt man and should never have been elected to lead FIFA.

    I agree. Should the war with Iran continue into the summer months, the US will not be safe for World Cup spectators. After the death of a drug cartel boss in Mexico last month, the country is not safe either. As it stands ...

    The World Cup will not be safe at all due to the recent developments in the Middle East. Many fans may not turn up for fear of any unforseen eventualities.

    Why the UAE, and the countries participating in the play-off not being considered? Bizarre!

    It's about regional represent. UAE were the nest best team so they will take Iran's place in the playoffs.

    Iran is just playing playoffs, people should not talk as if they have already qualified, I don't like what's happening but to allow Iran have refined nuclear is more deadly

    Every terrorist is a Muslim. They are very wicked in defending their religion

    Israel also has that temperamental violent nature as the Arabs, they also have built up a nuclear power for future war. Personally I don't think they all including Israel deserve to have nuclear power.

    Why not replace Iran with Nigeria? They are too desperate to go to the WC by any means

  • Aduanaba, 1 month ago

    Where is Fantino, after presenting the peace award to trump? Is Fantino collecting the award back? I think Fantino should.

  • Ghanaman 1 month ago

    Nigeria, this is your last chance to bribe FIFA to give Iran's spot to you ( you have been quite good at bribing teams during the qualifying rounds, Benin comes to mind). Good luck!

  • COD 1 month ago

    FIFA is a joke and must sit up!
    If Iran boycotts the WC, many other countries will follow suit owing to the nonsense and demonic killings being committed by USA & Israel.
    In fact, it is not safe at all because sending a tea ...

    The writer has ended up confusing readers. Iran has already qualified for the world cup. Iraq is the one in the playoffs. Check your spelling before publishing a story to avoid confusing readers.
