Iran's elimination from the 2026 FIFA World Cup made one person very happy.
Due to the ongoing war between the USA and Iran, the latter's 2026 FIFA World Cup participation came as a shock to many.
After all, the US is hosting the tournament alongside Mexico and Canada. Speaking of the two teams in the tournament, the USMNT is gearing up for the Round of 32 while Iran has already been eliminated.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin recently shared his first reaction to Iran's World Cup elimination in an interview with Sports Business Journal.
"I'm just glad they're done, and they're not coming back. I was so happy when we were able to pull their visas and said they could leave the US soil, and I might've sung a song or two or maybe even danced a happy dance," Mullin said.
