Iraq's World Cup Surge in Boston

The World Cup is rolling into Boston with a wild twist—16 cities across North America are hosting, and Foxboro’s Boston Stadium is set for seven high-stakes games, including a crucial quarterfinal. Teams like Iraq, England, Morocco, and Ghana are all in action, with Iraq bringing back their star-studded squad: midfield maestro Amir Al Ammari, electric winger Ali Jasim, and lethal striker Aymen Hussein—all back in form after captain Jalal Hassan’s injury recovery. They qualified by stunning Bolivia 2-1 in Mexico and have World Cup pedigree, having competed in ’86 and ’26 before. Now, they’re training in the scenic (and unexpected) White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia, at The Greenbrier, sharpening their edge for global glory.
