Al Karkh is an Iraqi football club based in Baghdad. Al-Karkh is actually the name for the Western half of Baghdad, which is of course split by the river Tigris. It was known as Al Rasheed until 1991. They were runners-up to Qatari club Al Sadd in the 1989 Asian Champions Cup having narrowly lost on the away goals rule. In 2006, the club surprisingly got demoted from the top Iraqi league to the second division.
