FIFA president Gianni Infantino said Iran will participate in this summer’s World Cup as planned despite its fractured relationship with the United States. Iran had been angling to move its scheduled games to Mexico after Donald Trump declared it was not “appropriate” for the team to play in the US amid its conflict with the country, but Infantino said Tuesday nothing about the event’s calendar will change.
