Match Info

The Iraq U20 national team secured a 2-1 victory over Yemen U20 in an international friendly match played on January 1st, 2025. This preparatory fixture served as crucial match practice for both sides ahead of upcoming continental youth tournaments. Iraq took control of the game early, establishing a 2-0 lead by halftime through a combination of structured play and individual skill. The Yemeni team, to their credit, did not give up and managed to pull a goal back in the second half to set up a nervy finish. However, the Iraqi defense held strong in the closing minutes to see out the win. The result will provide confidence for the Iraqi young talents as they continue their development, while Yemen U20 will take positives from their resilient second-half performance against a traditionally strong opponent in Asian youth football.
