Players of Jordan pose for a team photograph before the FIFA World Cup 2026 Group J match between Austria and Jordan at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium on June 16, 2026 in Santa Clara, California.

Despite losing 3-1 in their World Cup debut against Austria, Jordan had a respectable performance. Ali Olwan scored the equalizer at the 50th minute, which was the country’s first-ever World Cup goal.

An own goal gave Austria the lead before a last-minute penalty from Marko Arnautovic sealed The Chivalrous Ones’ fate. Nevertheless, they take on Algeria next on Monday night at the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium in California.

But before that match, let’s look at Jordan’s 26-player squad and the clubs they represent as professionals.
