My Take
Aymen Hussein, nicknamed Abu Tubar, 'The Hatchet Man,' is exactly the kind of striker I'd want leading my line in a knockout tie. Born in Hawija in Kirkuk in 1996, he's grown into one of Iraq's most prolific scorers, sitting among the country's all-time top five. At 189 centimeters he's a genuine target man, but what I appreciate is the instinct in the box rather than just the physicality. He carries the weight of national expectation in every qualifier, and the goals keep coming. For Iraqi football, he's been a dependable focal point during some tough campaigns.
