match commentary
- ▸ Iraq were tenacious and clutch in the closing stages as they fell to a narrow defeat.
- ▸ Norway were elegant, cultured and a master of intricate link-up play as they ran out deserved winners.
- ▸ Early change for IRQ on 59' — Zidane Iqbal came on (for Zaid Ismael); possibly an enforced knock.
- ▸ Early change for IRQ on 59' — Marko Farji came on (for Ali Al Hamadi); possibly an enforced knock.
