Després de 18 mesos d'interrupció, torna el futbol a Bagdad. Aquesta és la
resenya de l'AFP del partit de dissabte:
Several thousand rowdy soccer fans turned up at Al-Shaab stadium in Baghdad Saturday as premier league football got into full swing in the capital more than 18 months after mortars brought it to a halt.
Beating drums, waving flags, whistling and chanting, around 3,000 supporters ignored the presence of heavily armed troops and police to noisily cheer on Police College and Baghdad's most popular team, Al-Zawra, as they battled it out on a threadbare pitch.
Adults and children, many of them dressed in the green shirts of the Iraqi national team, arrived at the stadium by bus, on foot, in taxis and by car for the second match of the season, which proceeded without incident.
