Hell, anyone would play like they didn't need it when they didn't really need it. The hunger from the Iraqi team far surpassed that of the locals, excepting a few substitutes (Elrich, I'm looking at you here), which explains why they were striving for a faster game. This also explains why Iraq scored first.
