(8th title) Hashim Ridha (19 goals each) (Iraqi First Division League) The 1998–99 Iraqi Premier League was the 25th season of the competition since its foundation in 1974. The league title was won by Al-Zawraa for the eighth time in their history. Had Al-Talaba beaten Al-Naft on the last day of the season, they would have won the league title instead, but the match finished goalless and Al-Zawraa's 3–1 win over Al-Karkh saw them claim the trophy. Al-Zawraa also won the Iraq FA Cup to complete the double.
