Fifa is facing new questions over the increasingly fraught World Cup next year, with the issue of how to treat Iran while the country is involved in a conflict with the co-host the US. There are no provisions within Fifa's regulations to prevent Iran from playing their group matches in the US, despite the country being subject to military action by the Trump administration and Iranian citizens being under a travel ban that prevents them from entering the country. The ban contains an exemption that could apply to players, staff or associated families with teams at the 2026 Fifa World Cup. Iran, who faced USA in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, qualified in March for their fourth consecutive World Cup. Although 2026 is also being hosted by Canada and Mexico, only by being given a specific slot in group A could Iran avoid playing in the US, with their matches then taking place in Mexico. If Iran won that group they would stay in Mexico for their last-32 game and any last-16 match. Should they go further – and they have never reached a World Cup knockout game – they would then play in the US. Fifa did not respond on Monday to a request for comment from the Guardian and will likely be considering its options before the World Cup draw, which is due to take place in December. The decision will be a difficult one for its president, Gianni Infantino, who has associated himself closely with President Donald Trump, who authorised the use of US bombs on Iranian nuclear sites last weekend. Infantino and the Fifa Council will have the final say on inclusion in the competition and the makeup of the draw, but the organising committee for Fifa competitions will be expected to have input. The committee has members from Canada, Mexico and Iran, and its chair is Uefa's president, Aleksander Ceferin. In 2022, his organisation announced that Ukraine and Belarus would be kept apart in Uefa competition draws, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and his action may provide an example for Fifa to follow. Before the World Cup draw in Qatar, the agreed draw constraints included limitations on where teams could be selected but this related only to a 'general principle' that no more than one team from each confederation (excluding Europe) should appear in a given group.

NFL fans set for behind-the-scenes glimpse of Joe Burrow's home burglary drama as new Netflix trailer drops
The burglary of Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow's $7.5 million Ohio mansion is covered in the upcoming season of QUARTERBACKS, Netflix 's recurring behind-the-scenes documentary from NFL Films. This year's subjects include Burrow, Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and Atlanta Falcons veteran Kirk Cousins, who had varying degrees of success in 2024. While Cousins lost his starting job in Atlanta to rookie Michael Penix Jr., Goff guided the resurgent Lions to within a win of the Super Bowl. But it was Burrow's season that may have been the most fascinating. The Heisman winner and former first-overall pick helped Cincinnati bounce back from a 1-4 start to nearly make the postseason. It was in the midst that of strong finish that Burrow's home was robbed on December 9 – an experience that Burrow told reporters left him feeling 'violated.' The incident was initially shrouded in mystery after it emerged that the 911 call was made by Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Olivia Ponton rather than the quarterback's longtime partner Olivia Holzmacher. Although Holzmacher is no longer believed to be involved with Burrow, Ponton has stayed mum on her relationship with the quarterback, refusing to address the topic when asked by paparazzo at last month's Met Gala. However, the two were recently spotted out late in New York. Ponton - who boasts eight million followers on TikTok - is said to have told officers that she noticed 'a shattered bedroom window and the room ransacked' when she arrived at Burrow's property on December 9. Burrow was out of town at the time. Chilean nationals Bastian Morales, 23, Jordan Sanchez, 22, and Sergio Cabello, 38, and Alexander Chavez, 24, were later stopped and arrested by police on suspicion of robbery. Police found the group in possession of LSU and Bengals gear, which is believed to have been taken from Burrow's home. Officers said the men were in the country illegally after overstaying their permission. Three of the men -- Morales, Sanchez and Cabello – are facing federal charges for allegedly transporting stolen goods and falsifying record in a federal investigation. Those three are suspected by investigators of orchestrating similar robberies at the homes of Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes. In a shocking photo laid bare in court documents, all four men linked to the Burrow burglary can be seen posing in the jewelry they allegedly stole at his home - including the NFL star's personalized diamond-encrusted chains. They are understood to have made off with over $300,000 worth of his luxury possessions, according to federal prosecutors. Burrow addressed the robbery at the time, although he was clearly skittish about saying too much publicly. 'So obviously everybody has heard what has happened,' Burrow said in a statement after the robbery. 'I feel like my privacy has been violated in more ways than one. And way more is already out there than I would want out there and that I care to share, so that's all I got to say about that.' As for the documentary, Burrow appears to be growing impatient while discussing the ups and downs of his five-year career. Police bodycam footage of the moment four Chilean nationals were arrested earlier this month in connection with the recent burglary of Joe Burrow's $7.5million home has been released 'You only have so many of these seasons,' he said. 'You start out your career, you're like: 'I'm going to be playing 15, 20 seasons.' It seems like a lot. Then you blink your eye, you're in year five. Next time I blink my eye is going to be year 10. 'The great ones make it work.' The Bengals spent heavily to retain Burrow's favorite targets this offseason, signing receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins to extensions valued at a combined $276 million. As reported by Fox Sports' Jordan Schultz , Chase's deal makes him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history with $161 million going to the receiver over four years. Meanwhile, Higgins' deal is also for four years, albeit for 'only' $115 million. Chase's deal has $112 million in reported guarantees, while the first two years of Higgins deal is also guaranteed. The former Clemson star is now the highest-paid 'WR2' in the NFL. Coupled with Burrow's $46 million salary in 2025, the Bengals could be using around 40-percent of their salary cap space on just three players, depending on how the Chase and Higgins' deals are structured. Burrow could also restructure his deal to accommodate the Bengals' other signings.
