A Sit Down With Eversource's Chris McKinnon by BU News Service

Iran is out of the World Cup after losing to the United States on Tueaday in an intense match in Doha. The score was 1-0 with Christian Pulisic’s header from Sergino Dest into Iran’s goal in the 38th minute.

The loss was met by celebrations in Tehran and other Iranian cities with protesters saying that this loss was a blow to the government.

But there are currently concerns regarding the safety of Iranian players when they return to Iran. The team initially did not want to sing their national anthem before the first game, to show their support with the protesters but ended up unenthusiastically complying after the government threatened them.

The families of the players are also facing threats from the government.

Julia Fernandez talked to Yasmine Vakili, a sophomore at BU studying international relations with a middle east concentration. They are Half Iranian and are an avid World Cup fan.
