About this match

Iraq, who played their only World Cup in 1986, returns to football's biggest stage after 40 years of absence, a monumental feat for a country scarred by decades of conflict. On the other side, Norway also seeks to relive past glories after a long World Cup absence. Curiously, both are major oil producers, a coincidence that connects two vastly different nations.
