JORDAN : The team wasted no time in pressing forward, nearly getting on the scoreboard early when a lightning-fast counter-attack saw Yazan Al Naimat come close to scoring, only to have his shot roll just wide while caught offside. Jordan displayed urgency and finesse, aiming to capitalize early and seize the momentum against Oman.

Oman struggled to cope with Jordan’s quick and dynamic play. However, the breakthrough finally came in the 26th minute when Naimat seized the moment. He connected with a pinpoint cross and executed a crucial header just outside the box, sending the ball past the bewildered Omani defense and into the net, giving Jordan a well-deserved lead.
