History of the Jordan national team

Founding and Early Years

The Jordan national team, nicknamed "the Nashama" (the Chivalrous), is governed by the Jordan Football Association, founded in 1949. Long a quiet presence on the continental stage, it made a remarkable rise over the past decade.

Team Evolution

Driven by a generation of players competing in European leagues, Jordan's national team confirmed its rise by reaching the 2023 Asian Cup final, before sealing its very first World Cup qualification.

Great Managers

Hussein Ammouta, the Moroccan head coach, leads Jordan and guided them to the 2023 Asian Cup final and then to their historic qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

Iconic Players

Mousa Al-Tamari, current captain and Jordan's most-capped outfield player in history, embodies the generation that wrote the finest chapters of the national game.

Major Achievements

Jordan reached the final of the 2023 Asian Cup. They qualified for the World Cup for the first time in their history in 2026, where they were eliminated in the group stage, with defeats to Austria (1-3), Algeria (1-2), and Argentina (1-3).

The Team Today

Under Hussein Ammouta, Jordan rank among the rising nations of the Asian continent in the FIFA World Ranking.
