Iraqi Clubs In The AFC Club Competitions
Iraqi clubs in the AFC Club Competitions. From its introduction in 2002 until the forming of the AFC Professional League in 2009, Iraqi clubs were allowed to enter the AFC Champions League (ACL). Despite reaching respectable results, none of the Iraqi teams managed to get further than the group stage. Since Iraq did not meet the new AFC standards for the ACL, its clubs participated in the AFC Cup from 2009 until 2018 (however, the AFC gave Iraq one qualifying spot for the ACL for the 2014 edition only). Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya won the AFC Cup three times, in 2016, 2017 and 2018. Iraqi clubs returned to the ACL group stage in 2019.

AFC Champions League
The AFC Champions League (abbreviated as ACL) is an annual continental club football competition organised by the Asian Football Confederation, and contested by Asia's top-division football clubs. It is the most prestigious club competition in Asian football, played by the national league champions (and, for some nations, one or more runners-up) of their national associations. Introduced in 1967 as the Asian Champion Club Tournament, the competition rebranded and took on its current name in 2002 as a result of the merger between the Asian Club Championship, the Asian Cup Winners' Cup and the Asian Super Cup. A total of 40 clubs compete in the round-robin group stage of the competition. Clubs from Asia's strongest national leagues receive automatic berths, with clubs from lower-ranked nations eligible to qualify via the qualifying playoffs, and they are also eligible to participate in the AFC Cup. The winner of the AFC Champions League qualifies for the FIFA Club World Cup. ...
