About Iraq

The Iraq national football team’s origins date back to the 1920s when a team known as the Baghdad XI took on British Army soldiers in matches. In 1948, the official national team was founded and two years later they became recognised by Fifa, with their first match taking place in 1951 – a 1-1 draw against Basra XI. Iraq have qualified for one World Cup tournament in their history, in Mexico in 1986. They did not record a win or a point in their only appearance in the competition, but did score one goal through Ahmed Radhi in a 2-1 loss against Belgium. They have enjoyed more success closer to home, and won the Asian Cup in 2007, defeating Saudi Arabia 1-0 in the final thanks to a solitary goal from Younis Mahmoud. They made it to the quarter-final of the 1980 Olympic Games, and also competed in the 2009 Confederations Cup. Mahmoud is the record appearance maker for his nation, while Hussein Saeed has scored the most goals.
