Match Info
Iraq U23 showcased their attacking quality with an emphatic 8-1 victory over Pakistan U23 in an AFC U23 Asian Cup qualifier on September 3, 2025. The comprehensive win immediately establishes Iraq as a major force in their qualification group. Iraq were in control from the opening minutes, scoring multiple goals in a blistering first-half display that left Pakistan U23 shell-shocked. The second half continued in similar fashion, with Iraq adding to their tally with a mix of individual brilliance and team play. Pakistan U23 managed to score a consolation goal, which provided a brief moment of celebration for their traveling supporters, but it did little to affect the outcome. This lopsided match result gives Iraq a massive goal difference advantage and sends a clear warning to their other group opponents. The Iraq U23 coach will be pleased with the ruthless performance from his young squad.
