Doesn't feature vs. Senegal
Hussein (groin) didn't play in Friday's 5-0 loss to Senegal.
Analysis: Hussein was initially considered a late call for Iraq in this group-stage finale, but the striker didn't come off the bench. Hussein scored Iraq's lone goal of the tournament in the 4-1 defeat against Norway and finished his 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign with one goal, three shots (one on target) and one chance created in two appearances and 116 minutes of action.
Late call for Senegal clash
Hussein (groin) participated in full team training and will be a late decision for the match against Senegal, according to IraqXtra.
Analysis: Hussein had to be substituted in Iraq's previous game against France due to an apparent groin problem, but he trained fully with the squad on the eve of the match, easing fears around their most important player and biggest aerial threat. A decision on his involvement looks set to come late, and whether he starts straight away remains to be seen.
