The Iraqi Football Federation was very pleased with the team's performance. They immediately gave the players bonuses after the thrilling victory over the Vietnamese team.
"We recommend that the members of the Iraqi team open USD accounts to receive the prize money at the exact USD exchange rate. This way, they can easily receive the money and spend it," Adnan Darjal, president of the Iraqi Football Federation, told Baghdah Today.
The reason this agency pays out bonuses in USD is because many members of Iraq were born and raised abroad. They no longer have many connections with their homeland. Some players include Rebin Sulaka, Hussein Ali (living in Sweden), Frans Putros (Denmark), Merchas Doski (Germany)…

It is known that each player will receive from 3,000-5,000 USD/person (72 to 120 million VND) depending on their contribution. The total bonus for the entire Iraqi team is about 4 billion VND. This is not a small amount of money. It shows that the Iraqi Football Federation highly appreciates the importance of the match with the Vietnamese team.
Meanwhile, Iraqi Minister of Youth and Sports Ahmed Al-Mubarqa congratulated the Iraqi team after their victory over Vietnam. He appreciated the team's efforts and perseverance throughout the match. Mr. Ahmed Al-Mubarqa hopes that the Iraqi team will achieve more positive results in the future and win a ticket to the 2026 World Cup.
After this match, the Vietnamese and Iraqi teams will wait until March next year to continue their journey in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. In January next year, the two teams will continue to face each other when they are in the same group in the 2023 Asian Cup (with Indonesia and Japan).
