However, the prominence of the aforementioned goalkeeper did not end there, since recently the president of the Jordanian Football Association, Prince Ali Bin Al-Hussein, who in the past had been vice president of FIFA, became unmarked with a tweet that set off alarms since, if true, in his own words it could be something very serious.

The text asks for a thorough investigation and verification of the gender of the Iranian goalkeeper, almost expressly suggesting that it is actually a man and not a woman.

Faced with this accusation, the Iranian response has not been long in coming. First of all, by the same coach, Maryam Irandoust, who has already described such initiative as false pretexts for not accepting defeat, and has also stated that they will have no qualms about delivering any type of documentation if the investigation is carried out.

“The medical staff has carefully examined each player of the national team in terms of hormones to avoid problems in this regard, so I tell all fans not to worry,” concluded the coach Irandoost sports media Varzesh3 last Sunday . (D)
