Jordan's first World Cup
Jordan scored a spot in the expanded World Cup tournament by scoring 32 goals and winning eight out of 16 total matches across the qualifiers. It was the team’s first-ever World Cup appearance.
Jordan’s debut ended after the team suffered back-to-back losses in Group J against Austria and Algeria.
Still, fans were hyped about Saturday’s match against Argentina at Dallas Stadium. They are also optimistic about Jordan’s future World Cup appearances.
"The whole country now has the spirit that we can be playing at that level, and there are many changes inside the country to support that. So, I think Jordan will be in the next World Cup and the one after," Amer Alazzam told FOX 4.
Jordan's King Abdullah II reportedly attended Saturday’s match.
