Football

50.000 people packed the stadium in Bagdad, a match between Kurdistan and Baghdad teams, 1:0. Last time this many people gathered on a football match in Baghdad was 1990. Here are the photos that did not make the today's story, I quite like them :)


this is the view from outside the stands, it was near the end of the match, overtime was played and people were already leaving the stadium.


The upper seats were packed with people.

After consecutive 3rd nite, I finally managed to upload a video online, and I'll post it tomorrow. I'm also due to leave for a longer embed in the next few days. Hopefully, more good photos on the way.
