Aymen Hussein News: Scores in both lets

Hussein scored one goal to go with an own goal, three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 4-1 defeat against Norway.

Hussein recorded a rare feat in Tuesday's match, scoring a goal for Iraq while also netting an own goal, the first such occurrence in a World Cup competition since 2018. Despite the mishap, the forward delivered a solid attacking performance, tallying three shots, winning two aerial duels, and maintaining an 80 percent pass accuracy. Paired with Al Hamadi, Hussein serves as the focal point of the attack, however, with two difficult matchups remaining, scoring opportunities for the side may be limited.
