Iran declined to sing their national anthem before their World Cup match with England in an apparent expression of support for anti-government protests in their home country, which have been met with fierce crackdown in recent months.
Some fans shouted and jeered during the anthem and others held up signs saying "Woman, Life, Freedom".
Iran state TV cut its coverage of the anthem and switched to a previously shown wide shot of the stadium.
