With the US-Iran peace deal seemingly in tatters, and reporting restrictions on western media outlets, how can journalists figure out what’s actually going on in Iran?

Has Donald Trump’s intervention over a red card at the World Cup undermined fans' trust in FIFA? Giles Whittell is joined by The Observer’s Hannah Schuller, Poppy Bullard and Andrew Butler as they battle it out to pitch the top story of the day. **We want to hear what you think!
