Doha, Qatar: Jordan secured their place in the knockout stage of the FIFA Arab Cup 2025 with a convincing 3-1 victory over Kuwait in their Group C clash yesterday.
The win took Jamal Sellami’s side to six points, ensuring a top-two finish in the group regardless of the results of the remaining fixtures.
“The team has high ambitions to go far in this tournament. We will manage player rest in the upcoming match against Egypt to cope with fatigue from the demanding schedule,” said Sellami.
“We entered the match against Kuwait with great focus and seriousness, aiming to secure the three points, which the team achieved with a strong performance.”
Jordan got into their rhythm early on with Mohannad Abutaha denied by a great Rashed Aldousari sliding challenge before Nizar Alrashdan headed wide with Kuwait’s goalmouth gaping.
