Iraq give Pakistan a lesson in soccer

Asian champions Iraq gave Pakistan a 7-0 soccer lesson in their opening 2010 World Cup qualifier in Lahore on Monday.Mahdi Karim scored four goals and more than made up for the absence of injured captain Younis Mahmoud.
Iraq are hoping to reach the finals for the first time in 24 years and we wish them luck.Four of the seven goals have arrived on youtube and you can see them here and here and here and here.
The rest will turn up eventually I suppose.The first goal was by Nashat Akram and the other three by Karim.Match report here.
