Egypt and Iran are two of the most repressive places in the world for gays and lesbians. But by sheer coincidence they will square off in a World Cup "Pride Match" in Seattle coinciding with the city's annual celebration of the LGBTQ+ community.
It has already gotten awkward, with both countries asking for the celebrations to be canceled.
