Not Sticking Around

A fifth member of the Iranian women’s soccer team has ditched their asylum bid in Australia, leaving just two of the original seven squad members behind. The player made a swift exit Sunday night, right before midnight.

What’s Left

It’s not clear what prompted the player’s decision to leave, but it’s clear they won’t be sticking around to see their asylum claim through. The exit leaves just two players from the initial group of seven in Australia, and it’s a pretty safe bet they’re feeling the pressure.
