Iran’s football team given farewell ceremony in Tehran on Wednesday, but state media reports US visas yet to be issued.
Iran’s football federation chief says no visas have yet been issued for the national team to play World Cup games in the United States, state media reported.
“Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we will have a decisive meeting with FIFA. They must give us guarantees, because the visa issue has still not been resolved,” the state news agency IRNA quoted federation chief Mehdi Taj as saying on Thursday.
