Despite the nation being torn apart by civil war, 2006 in Iraqi football went as scheduled for the most part. Iraqi clubs participated in international competition. The National team qualified for the 2007 AFC Asian Cup. The Youth teams participated at the U-17 and Youth Championships, while the Olympic team won the silver medal at the 2006 Asian Games.

No games by the national team or the Iraqi clubs international participation were played in Iraq due to violence.
