Good news about Iraq

At last something we can all celebrate (this is rather late, but it was only told to me last night)

Iraq 4: 2 Portugal

Yes, that's right. Iraq beat Portugal at soccer in the Olympics. At it wasn't a joke Portuguese side -- it contained Ronaldo, and three other main-team internationals.

Great Britain of course doesn't not enter a team, ostensibly because it only has English, Welsh, Scottish and N.Irish teams.
