Iran's national soccer team is working towards a milestone in the World Cup. The team has played two matches so far, with the most recent one ending in a draw at SoFi Stadium on Sunday.

The team's coach reflected on the journey to this point, looking back six months to a time of significant upheaval in Iranian society. This period of instability was triggered by joint strikes by the US and Israel in late February.
