ItalyThe Iranian national football team left a handwritten message in the locker room at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles after their 0-0 draw with Belgium during the World Cup. The message expressed hopes for peace, respect, and friendship among peoples and included two hashtags referencing the February U.S. airstrike in Minab, Iran, which killed 168 people, including students at a girls' school. The team thanked Los Angeles for its hospitality and acknowledged the support of the Iranian diaspora in California. The result allowed Iran to move to second place in Group G, keeping their chances alive for advancing to the next round, depending on their final match against Egypt.
