President Sheinbaum allows Iran team to stay in Mexico during World Cup after US refusal

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that Mexico will host the Iranian national football team as its base during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, after the United States declined to host the squad even though Iran will play all three of its group stage matches in U.S. cities. The team will be based in the border city of Tijuana to avoid U.S. visa complications, traveling directly to Mexico via Iran Air flights for the tournament running June 11 to July 19, 2026.
