Iranian women's football team banned, Why?
Tweet |
Iranian women's football team was banned from the game moments before they face Jordan in an Olympic qualifier.
FIFA claimed that they broke the rule by wearing Islamic head scarf and a full-body strip. FIFA's rules for the 2012 Olympics state that: "Players and officials shall not display political, religious, commercial or personal messages or slogans in any language or form on their playing or team kits."
Do you think its fair that the Iranian women's football team was banned?
