Baghdad / Nina/ This Wednesday evening, the U-20 youth team will open its matches in the West Asian Championship against the Australian U-23 national team.
The West Asian Championship witnesses the participation of a number of teams from outside the continent and others not from the west of the continent, such as the Egyptian national team, the Australian national team, and the South Korean and Thai national teams.
The youth team participated in the tournament designated for the Olympic teams after our Olympic team apologized from participating due to the close dates of the tournament with the Asian Olympic Teams Championship, which will be held in Qatar next month. Consequently, the Football Association decided to include the youth team in this tournament.
It is noteworthy that the youth team will be led by the young coach Hassan Turki after the suspension penalty that coach Imad Muhammad was subjected to due to a complaint that reached FIFA about violations against an Iraqi female journalist./End
