The Baghdad Cup (Arabic: كأس بغداد) was a friendly football match hosted by Al-Shaab Stadium to conclude the Festival of Brotherhood, Love and Peace (Arabic: مهرجان التأخي والمحبة والسلام), an event organised by the Iraqi Ministry of Youth and Sports on 16 June 2013.[1] The match was contested by two of the country's top clubs, Al-Shorta and Al-Zawraa, and fans were allowed free entry into the stadium for the occasion.[2]

Al-Kadhimiya and Al-Adhamiya played against each other in a 30-minute match to open the festival; Al-Kadhimiya won 1–0 with a goal by Raddad Suhail and were awarded with the Love and Peace Cup trophy.[3] Al-Shorta and Al-Zawraa then faced off for the Baghdad Cup trophy which was won by Al-Shorta with a winning goal from substitute striker Hussein Karim in the 57th minute.[4]
