Baghdad/Obelisk:
Muhammad Hassan Al-Saadi
Different dialects and diverse hearts converged in a great sports carnival, which was embraced by the city of Basra in southern Iraq, at the opening of the Gulf 25, and opened its arms to receive its guests from all parts of the countries participating in the tournament.
The Al Khaleeji edition is distinguished by the presence of “UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar” in one group, in addition to the “Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Oman” group, which means that the intensity of competition will be strong between these teams, which raises the level of excitement and competition to its maximum in All matches.

Football has become one of the most important political and executive arms, and it has the tools to achieve what it wants, in terms of reflecting an Iraqi internal reality, to the pressing global public opinion, in addition to the economic reality that the region is experiencing, so such activities can bring regarding any expected changes and demands, be able to Simulating reality, mobilizing determination and launching towards new shores filled with security, peace, work, cooperation, openness, and societal and cultural reconstruction, radically different from what prevailed.
