Iraq's national soccer team faces World Cup qualification disruptions as coach Graham Arnold remains stranded in the United Arab Emirates due to airspace closures from Middle East conflict, while players cannot obtain Mexican entry visas for a March 31 playoff match. Iraq is scheduled to play Bolivia or Suriname in Mexico for one of two remaining World Cup spots, with the federation communicating with FIFA and the Asian Football Confederation about the situation.
