Jordan made history by qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup for the first time. Their route began in the AFC second round, where they finished top of Group G with 13 points from six matches. In the third round, Jordan stayed competitive in a difficult Group B and secured second place behind South Korea. The decisive moment came on June 5, 2025, when Jordan beat Oman 3-0 in Muscat, and South Korea’s win over Iraq later the same day officially confirmed Jordan’s place at the World Cup. It was a landmark qualification run for Al-Nashama and one of the biggest achievements in the team’s history.

Jordan’s World Cup history begins with a breakthrough rather than a long tradition. The nation qualified for the FIFA World Cup for the first time in 2026, turning one of the greatest dreams in its football history into reality. That achievement made Jordan one of the tournament’s new debutants and marked a defining moment for the country’s sporting identity.
The most iconic moment in that journey came in June 2025, when Jordan sealed qualification with a 3–0 win over Oman, powered by a hat-trick from Ali Olwan. The campaign also elevated figures such as coach Jamal Sellami and star forward Musa Al-Taamari, whose influence helped drive the team to the global stage.
Because 2026 will be Jordan’s first appearance, its World Cup story is still being written. But that is exactly what makes the moment so powerful: for Jordan, qualification itself is the historic chapter, the landmark achievement, and the event that changed everything.
Jordan will make their first-ever FIFA World Cup appearance in 2026. Qualification marked a historic breakthrough for Al-Nashama and opened a completely new chapter in the nation’s football history.
Jordan’s best World Cup finish is still to be determined, as 2026 will be their debut tournament. Reaching the finals itself already stands as the greatest World Cup achievement in the country’s history.
Jordan do not yet have a World Cup goalscoring record, because 2026 will be their first appearance at the finals. At national-team level, Hamza Al-Dardour is Jordan’s all-time top scorer with 33 goals.
Jordan do not yet have a World Cup appearance leader, as the team has not played at the finals before. In overall international football, Amer Shafi holds the national record with 171 caps.
