Amman- Jordanians and analysts have expressed great optimism about achieving positive results in the 2026 World Cup after the national football team was placed in Group Ten of the 2026 World Cup, to be held for the first time across three countries: the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The 'Nashama's' group includes Argentina, Austria, and Algeria, a group described by analysts as balanced.
Despite the strength of the competition, many supporters expressed hope that the 'Nashama' team will pull off a major surprise at the World Cup and advance to later stages, benefiting from previous experiences and the good preparation provided by the technical staff.
Experts pointed out that facing teams like Argentina, one of the strongest teams in football history, will be a significant challenge for the 'Nashama.' However, they also believe the national team possesses the capabilities to deliver a distinguished performance against strong teams.
On the other hand, some considered that the Jordanian team would benefit from the matches against Algeria and Austria, as these games may give the 'Nashama' the opportunity to perform better and achieve satisfactory results.
His Majesty King Abdullah II expressed his pride in Jordan's name being in the 2026 World Cup draw.
His Majesty said in a post on 'X': 'Proud to have Jordan's name in the 2026 World Cup draw today. We wish the 'Nashama' success in this historic participation.'
HRH Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II said on Instagram: 'A historic moment we are living today... Proud of Jordan's great achievement... A dream writing a new beginning for Jordanian football.'
Analysts indicated that the 'Nashama' team has a good chance to qualify despite the group's difficulty, based on the players' performance development and their ability to compete in major tournaments.
They added that 'nothing is impossible' in the 'Nashama's' dictionary, confirming the team has significant official and popular support. They noted that the group the national team landed in is balanced, and facing Argentina will be a fantastic opportunity for the players to their potential, and the order of matches in the group increases the chances of qualifying for the second round.
Others saw that the national team enters the World Cup without pressure, which could enable players to deliver a better performance.
National Team Technical Director Jamal Salameh confirmed that the team's presence in Group Ten is good.
Salameh said: 'Jordan's presence in Group Ten is good for us, and our match against the world champion is a big challenge, but it's an opportunity for Jordanian football to play against the best players in the world.'
He added: 'Facing the world champion (Argentina) is exceptional, but in the World Cup and matches, there are no barriers for players. We saw Saudi Arabia when it beat Argentina (in 2022). The most important thing is that Jordanian football will be present at the global event.'
National Team Captain Ehsan Haddad said on his personal Facebook account: 'The draw has mapped our path, and we are fully prepared, knowing only the language of challenge.'
Algeria's Bosnian coach, Vladimir Petković, said: 'In the first match (against Argentina) we will not enter as a losing team. We will do everything we can against Argentina and prepare for the next two crucial matches against Austria and Jordan.'
He added: 'A very interesting group. In our group, Argentina is the favorite (for top spot) and Austria is a developed team.'
Argentina's coach, Lionel Scaloni, said the Jordanian national team is the most mysterious competitor for him.
He added: 'As long as Jordan has reached the World Cup, there must be a reason for it. We must play the matches with the greatest possible commitment, work, and respect in order to qualify for the final stage.'
