Real Madrid supporters club in Iraq attacked by terrorists - 16 dead

Real Madrid 20 more injured

Real Madrid have been rocked by the news of a terrorist attack at one of their supporters clubs in Iraq, just a day before the first team plays Deportivo La Coruna for a chance of winning the La Liga title.

16 people are known to have died in the atrocity with another 20 injured, and it's feared that the number of deaths could rise in the coming hours.

Gunmen apparently entered the room where Los Blancos fans were gathered and randomly opened fire.

As yet, no organisation has claimed responsibility for the attack.
