Jordan Olwan a Rematch against Austria

 5/26ths of the World Cup

  

 

Austria have not qualified for a World Cup for 28 years. Jordan have never qualified for a World Cup before. The two met for the overnight red eye main event. While many, perhaps all, of us were sleeping, these two teams played in a match that had a little of everything. Action started in the 20th minute when Romano Schmid would score to put Austria up 1-0. Just a half hour later, Ali Olwan would score Jordan's first goal at a World Cup to tie the match. Jordanian Yazan Alarab would score the next goal in the 76th minute. Unfortunately, he would put the ball in his own net. Marko Arnautovic would put the nail in the coffin of Jordan with a goal in the 12th minute of stoppage time. Just like that Austria pick their first victory at a World Cup since 1990.
