Hideo Tamaki

After overcoming a career-threatening allergy to lawn clippings in his youth, this reserved Japanese striker transformed his hardship into an obsessive, ruthless clinical edge in front of goal. Blessed with exceptional agility and thunderous shot power, he ruthlessly exploits gaps, even as his sometimes clumsy close-quarters touch occasionally lets him down. At 186 cm, he remains a stoic, physical force whose sole language is the back of the net.
