Style of play
The secret for the success of
Gulf Cupwas Humam, and the secret to the future success of Younis will be Humam Tariq, because of the quick link-up play from Humam, as he's the fastest player on the flanks to Younis, assisting him and one of the important keys to opening the door of the opposition is that he's the quickest player in Iraq (on the ball).
—
Tariq uses his small frame and explosive pace to burst past defenders and find space on the flank and down the middle. His distribution is already excellent for such a young man. The midfielder is an excellent crosser of the ball and he is also known for his good finishing which leads to plenty of goals, and his confident passing can open up any game.[82] Often compared to Raheem Sterling, Tariq plays in an offensive midfield role and has a combination of speed and vision that is not that common. He has an explosive quickness in the first few meters and a good technique.[83] Due to his build and style of play, he has often been compared to Lionel Messi, gaining him the nickname "Iraqi Messi".
Tariq's definitive position could be as a deep-lying forward, behind a central striker, giving him the freedom of movement, to draw opposing players out of position and exploit holes in the opposition's defense. He doesn't look or play anything like an old fashioned attacking wide-man, but is deployed as more of an unorthodox modern-day winger, tucking in when his team is without the ball and often asked to press the opposition to regain back possession.[2] His exceptional crossing, passing, finishing, skills and electric pace, combined with his experience at a young age, make Tariq one of the best Asian talents to look forward to.
