Jordan out of World Cup after Argentina defeat

Jordan fell to Argentina on Monday in their third World Cup group match, a result that ends any hope of reaching the knockout stage (1). Jamal Sellami's side needed a win to stay alive in Group J, but the debutants could not find it on the final matchday. Ali Olwan's historic goal against Austria in the opener remains the bright spot of a campaign that showed the gap between promise and experience at this level. Argentina now turn their attention to Cabo Verde, while Jordan head home still searching for that first World Cup victory.
