Jordan advanced to their first Asian Cup final as Mousa Tamari’s incredible curling goal stunned two-time champion South Korea.
Jordan took the lead at the beginning of the second half thanks to a deft dink from Yazan Al-Naimat, and Tamari extended their advantage with an outstanding solo effort.
South Korea’s defense found it difficult to contain a high-pressing Jordan team in the first half, especially with Kim Min-jae of Bayern Munich missing due to suspension.
Before this year’s event, Jordan had never advanced past the quarterfinals. In Saturday’s final, they will play either Iran or the hosts, Qatar.
