The Iranian Football Federation will not play against the Iraqi team in Iraq.
The Iranian national football team is scheduled to face Russia in a friendly match on March 23, 2023.
Yesterday, the Iranian federation sent a letter to the Iraqi federation expressing their readiness to hold a friendly match in Tehran.
The federation is awaiting a response from the Iraqi side, but the match will only take place if Iran is the host. If the Iraqis propose their own country as the host, the match will be canceled.
