Iranian women’s football team ‘under house arrest’ after refusing to sing regime’s anthem

Sky News host James Macpherson says the Iranians women’s football team is “under house arrest” after refusing to sing the regime’s national anthem.

Mr Macpherson said a commentator on Iranian state TV labelled them “traitors” to the nation.

“It’s amazing how having state TV call for your imprisonment or worse, changes one’s demeanour.”
