Iran's football federation have appealed for the United States of America to be expelled from World Cup 2022.  The US removed the Islamic Republic emblem was removed from Iran's


flag on social media graphics, ahead of the pair's clash on Tuesday, claiming they didn't want to use the official flag to show "support for the women in Iran fighting for


basic human rights", amid mass anti-government protests in the country. The protests in Iran were sparked by the death in custody of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who was detained by


morality police for allegedly breaking strict rules around head coverings, in September. You may like "In an unprofessional act, the Instagram page of the US football federation


removed the Allah symbol from the Iranian flag," Iran's state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency claimed. "The Iran Football Federation sent an email to FIFA to demand it issue a


serious warning to the US federation." According to FIFA rules, however, the US could face expulsion from the World Cup as a result of the action.  According to section 13 of FIFA


rules, any person who offends the dignity or integrity of a country, a person or group of people could be sanctioned with a suspension lasting at least ten matches or a specific period, or


any other appropriate disciplinary measure. This would mean that Iran could be given a bye into the last-16 of the competition – however unlikely that may be. "We can't speak for


them and their message. We know that they're all emotional," US defender Walker Zimmerman said. "They're all going through things right now, they're human. Again, we


empathise with that human emotion and completely feel for them." The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week. Iran's game against the United
