The Iran soccer team thanked fans in L.A. after making history while tying its first two World Cup games at SoFi Stadium in front of sellout crowds.

The Iran soccer team left a note in its SoFi Stadium locker room thanking Los Angeles-area fans for their hospitality.

The Iranians made history with two draws in Inglewood, marking the first time the team has avoided a loss through its first two World Cup games. While the matches drew protests against the Iranian regime, including some booing both times the national anthem was played before kickoffs, the crowds heavily favored and cheered loudly for the Iranian team.
