The wet conditions at Amman International Stadium did little to hamper Jordan as they raced to a two-goal lead within the first 11 minutes.

Mousa Al Tamari swung in an outswinging corner kick in the third minute that was met by the unmarked Yazan Al Arab, with the central defender volleying the ball home.

Stade Rennais FC forward Tamari then got his second assist seven minutes later with another set-piece, this time from a free-kick on the right that was delivered perfectly for Abdallah Nasib to glance in.

Jordan’s early dominance took a knock in the 33rd minute as Palestine scored against the run of play when Tamer Seyam ghosted in at the back post to slam home Ahmed Taha’s cross.

Al Tamari’s determination enabled Jordan to restore their two-goal advantage in the third minute of first half added time, pinching the ball off Mohammed Saleh before placing a low curling shot past the stranded Rami Hamada.

Hamada continued to be the busier of the two keepers in the second half, producing a finger tip save in the 57th minute to push away Nizar Al Rashdan’s long range attempt.

With an eye on Tuesday’s away encounter against group leaders Korea Republic, Jordan head coach Jamal Sellami took the impressive Al Tamari off in the 73rd minute as the home side comfortably saw out the remainder of the match for a well-deserved three points.
