Female fans were allowed into Tehran's Azadi stadium for the first time since 1979 today to watch Iran vs Spain.

Iran and Morocco have reintroduced the vuvuzela to this year's World Cup.
"Eight years after they became the most reviled musical instruments ever to be heard at an orgainzed sporting event, the infamous and unmistakable sound of the vuvuzela has, once again, made a comeback at the Russia 2018 World Cup." (RT News | 16 June 2018)

Iran's offside goal
Costa's wicked ricochet-
hushed vuvuzelas
