"There are a large number of Iranian security officers in Qatar collecting information and monitoring the players," the source said.
"In the last game against Wales, the regime sent over hundreds of these actor supporters in order to create a false sense of support and favor amongst the fans. For the next game against the U.S., the regime is planning to significantly increase the number of actors into the thousands."
American head coach Gregg Berhalter and captain Tyler Adams were confronted by what appeared to be hostile Iranian journalists on Monday.
"I don’t know enough about politics. I'm a soccer coach," Berhalter said when asked about a U.S. Navy ship in the Persian Gulf before getting grilled about a controversial social media post in which U.S. Soccer posted an image of the Iranian flag without the Islamic Republic emblem. Berhalter "had no idea about what U.S. Soccer put out," he said. "All we can do on our behalf is apologize on behalf of the players and the staff, but it’s not something that we are part of."
Adams was chided by an Iranian reporter who said Adams mispronounced "Iran" and questioned why he was "representing a country that has so much discrimination against black people." "My apologies on the mispronunciation of your country," Adams said. "That being said, there's discrimination everywhere you go. One thing that I've learned, especially from living abroad in the past years and having to fit in in different cultures and kind of assimilating to different cultures, is that in the U.S. we're continuing to make progress every single day."
Take: When you don't call bullshit on bogus Smollettish racism at home, your enemies will club you with it like a baby seal on the world stage.
