⚽ Seck? No, it’s Diarra’s goal: he got the final touch

It turns into a disastrous evening for Iraq: after conceding early, Sulaka blatantly brings down Mané as he races through on goal. Taylor initially shows a yellow card, then goes to the monitor after a VAR recommendation and changes his decision. Straight red for DOGSO: Iraq trail 1-0 and are down to 10 men after just 13 minutes.
