And life moved on.
Politics have always been part of World Cups, and usually it goes off without a hitch.
But this year, the tournament enters uncharted waters.
Two countries at war with each other have never played in the same competition.
And at the center of all this, yet again, are the United States, the tournament co-hosts, and Iran.
And it's not just geopolitics.
This tournament is meant to mean big bucks for pretty much everyone.
It's been billed as equivalent to 104 Super Bowls.
From the BBC, I'm Tristan Redman.
And today on The Global Story, as the United States, Canada and Mexico get ready to host the biggest World Cup ever, my own co-host Asma Khalid speaks to economics journalist and football obsessive Mehreen Khan.
That was Mehreen Khan, economics editor of The Times of London, speaking to my co-host Asma Khalid.
Mehreen also hosts the Heroes and Humans of Football podcast.
