The Iranian “women’s” soccer team has found a loophole. Instead of comprising a team of actual women, they have added on eight full grown men who they claim are transgender and awaiting sex changes.

“The country’s football association was accused of being ‘unethical’ for knowingly fielding eight men in its women’s team,” reports The Telegraph.

“[Eight players] have been playing with Iran’s female team without completing sex change operations,” said Mojtabi Sharifi, an official described as “close to the Iranian league.”

Members of the national team were ordered on Wednesday to undergo gender testing. Iran’s soccer governing body implemented random checks in 2014 after four women’s team players were discovered to be biological men who never underwent a sex change.

Players on the Iranian women’s team are mandated to wear long-sleeved jerseys, pants, and hijabs.
