Third all time top scorer in the Saudi League, one of the best leagues in Asia. Was banned from playing for Syria for political reasons until the last 2 matchdays of WCQ for the 2018 World Cup.

First game against Qatar he doesn’t score. Second game against Iran, the best team in Asia he scores a 90th + minute equaliser to send Syria to the playoffs.

In the playoffs Syria now have a genuine superstar against Australia.

First leg Australia 1-1 Syria, Al Somah penalty.

Second leg, Syria take the lead, guess who? Al Somah.

Australia then score 2, including one in extra time.

Syria gets a free kick in the 120th minute, Al Somah takes if Syria score then Syria win the playoff ok away goals.

Probably the most heartbreaking football moment ever for me, and I’m not even Syrian lol.

He’s 34 now, and did score against North Korea in that game
