Iran's hopes of reaching the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 32 have received support from an unexpected place.

In a post on X, the embassy wrote, "Dearest Black Stars, Every embassy in Accra is neutral tonight. Except one. There are other ways we could qualify tonight. We could wait for Algeria. We could hope Congo slips. But we'd rather owe it to you. Beat Croatia."
