The Iranian national football team has arrived in Mexico to begin final preparations for the upcoming FIFA World Cup. Before departing, players and officials followed a long-standing tradition by kissing the Holy Quran and walking beneath it, seeking divine protection and success. The farewell ceremony took place in Antalya, Turkey, where the ritual was performed before the team flew to Mexico for training ahead of their group-stage matches in the United States later this month.
The ritual, deeply rooted in Iranian culture, symbolizes faith, unity, and national pride. Iran’s World Cup participation has faced complications due to ongoing conflict with Israel and U.S. involvement in that situation. Visa issues forced the team to relocate its training camp from Tucson, Arizona, to Tijuana, Mexico, near the California border. The team had been training in Antalya before traveling to Mexico.
Earlier this year, U.S. President Donald Trump discouraged Iran from participating, citing safety concerns. Iran’s team responded firmly, asserting that no one could exclude them from the tournament. The team is now preparing to compete despite earlier obstacles.
