Career
editMinyahil is a left-footed, intelligent playmaker who always gives his full for the team. Despite being technically a wing play-maker, he always has an eye for strikers. He unlocks defenses with his well-timed, precise passes, knows when to time his run, and more importantly, how to put the ball in the back of the net. He is great with his first touch and a master at playing one-two's with teammates just near the edge of the box. He is a player who is good with short passes and likes to show off his amazing skills and make a mockery of a defense by dribbling past them with his amazing pace; a team player who makes the team click and makes the wingers a huge part of his off the ball generosity by making sublime passes. This is possibly the reason he doesn't assist so much in goals.[2] He began his career with Ethiopian Coffee FC, and joined Dedebit in 2012.[citation needed]
International career
editHe is part of the Ethiopia national football team since 2011. He is on the list for 2013 African Nations Cup.[citation needed]
In January 2014, coach Sewnet Bishaw invited him to be a part of the Ethiopia squad for the 2014 African Nations Championship.[3] The team was eliminated in the group stages after losing to Congo, Libya and Ghana.[4][5][6]
