History
Ask anyone around Bagdá about local football and Al-Rasheed SC usually comes up sooner or later. Since 1976 the name has stayed on team sheets, programmes and dressing-room doors. Some years bring promotion pushes; others are about staying upright and paying the bills. Matchdays revolve around Al-Shaab Stadium (about 40,000 capacity), with the usual mix of season tickets, walk-ups and family groups. If football is a map of cities and towns, Al-Rasheed SC is one clear pin in Iraq.
