Playing style

Although a great finisher with an impressive goal scoring record, Al-Mutwa is more comfortable playing the role of the second striker, where his tight ball control and great passing is best utilized. A recent example of his ability to create opportunities for his team mates was in the 1-2 loss to Oman in the second match of the 2007 Gulf Cup. Al-Mutwa had the ball with only two minutes remaining, he first ran into the opponent's goal before turning the other way as though he was backing off, drawing two Omanian players in the process, Al-Mutwa then played an unexpected through ball from a very awkward position. The ball curled all the way to Al Qadisiya teammate Nawaf Al Mutairi
