Carlos Queiroz stormed out of the press conference

Iran boss Carlos Queiroz stormed out of his recent press conference after he was asked about women's rights in the country. There have been calls to expel Iran from the upcoming World Cup due to the ongoing unrest in the country which has seen men and women protest the death of death of Mahsa Amin, a Kurdish woman who died while in police custody earlier this month.

Ahead of his side's start to the tournament, Queiroz was asked about the situation in Iran and he said he would only answer if he received a fee. "Are you ok representing a country like Iran at this World Cup that represses the rights of women?" the reporter asked. "To which channel you work?" Queiroz replied. The reporter told him it was Sky, to which the 69-year-old said: "How much you pay me to answer that question? You are a private company, how much you pay me?
