YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Headlines have been made on and off the pitch during the England opener in Qatar.

The match was a convincing success for England, as they beat Iran 6-2.

But the football was not enough to dampen controversy surrounding the tournament, or signs of political tensions, as the Iranian team refused to sing their national anthem.

Sky's Alistair Bunkall has this report from Al Rayyan in Qatar.
