Not quite - 2 people were killed in the celebrations thanks to guns being fired in 'happiness' :(

In relative terms, it's "happiness".

Only two people dying is probably a good day in Iraq in the context of the usual daily death toll.

Did they win it fair and square, or invade Saudi Arabia and annex part of the country for it ?

thats a silly comment bunglemark.

Iraq fully deserved their win, they played superbly well and taught saudi a lesson.

I love both national teams, and i was really happy that iraq won it and it is something to be proud of.
