The Iraqi Football Association has announced that all logistical and administrative issues related to the national team's travel to Mexico for the World Cup 2026 playoff match have been resolved. Ahmed Al-Mousawi, a member of the association, confirmed that the visa crisis is now a thing of the past, and all necessary documents for the team's delegation to enter Mexico are fully prepared. This development alleviates worries about any legal barriers preventing the squad's participation in the upcoming match.
