Despite the Absence of Formal Ties, Pakistan Protects Iran's Interests
In a match filled with tension and drama, the United States emerged victorious over Iran on Tuesday, securing their place in the knockout stage of the 2022 FIFA World Cup. While Iran and the United States have had no formal diplomatic relations since 1980, Pakistan has stepped in as Iran's protecting power in the United States.
Christian Pulisic, the American star, scored the game's only goal in the first half, but the celebration was bittersweet as he also sustained an injury in the process. The pain was evident on his face, but his determination and resilience shone through as he helped the team hold on to their narrow lead.
The match was a nail-biter from start to finish, with both teams displaying grit and determination. The United States will now face the Netherlands in the last 16, while Iran's World Cup journey comes to an end.
