Egypt and Iran have asked FIFA to block LGBTQ+ Pride-related activities linked to their 2026 World Cup group match in Seattle, arguing the plans clash with their cultural and religious values. The two nations, where same-sex relations are criminalised or harshly punished, have formally protested a locally branded “Pride Match” scheduled for June 26 at Lumen Field, which coincides with Seattle’s Pride weekend.
