Two games have already been played at the venue: Ivory Coast beat Ecuador, and Brazil defeated Haiti. France opened its campaign with a 3-1 win over Senegal, with Kylian Mbappe scoring twice in a high-stakes rematch of a stunning French loss from 2002.
Iraq is making its second World Cup appearance and its first since the team's debut in 1986. The Iraqis lost their opening match to Norway and now face an attack that may prove even more dangerous than the one led by Erling Haaland in that Norway side.
