Comes off bench against Spain
Amyn (hamstring) played as a substitute during Thursday's friendly draw versus Spain and should be ready to appear at the World Cup.
Analysis: Amyn has bounced back from a muscular injury, giving Iraq a viable option to replace either Ibrahim Bayesh or Marko Hussein Farji on the wings. While Amyn's value may be limited due to his side's difficult group-stage challenges, he may carry significant offensive responsibility. Last season, he notched two goals and one assist over 13 appearances (six starts) for his club AEK Larnaca.
Trains in full
Amyn (hamstring) has returned to full training with the Iraq squad and should be an option for Thursday's friendly against Spain.
Analysis: Amyn had been sidelined since March with a hamstring injury, raising concerns over his World Cup participation, but his return to full collective sessions is a clean bill of health heading into the pre-tournament friendly. His availability for the Spain clash gives coach Graham Arnold another attacking option to assess ahead of Iraq's World Cup opener.
