Jordanians applaud World Cup players
The Jordanian refereeing crew participated exceptionally in the 2026 World Cup, managing four matches, including group stage encounters and knockout rounds. They even reached the stage of officiating the final match, marking the first time Jordan has done so in the history of the World Cup. Referee Adham Al-Makhadmah and two assistant referees were selected by FIFA, and their participation was a recognition of Jordan's refereeing standards on the international stage. Previously, Jordan had only one assistant referee participate in the 2002 World Cup. Managing a World Cup final is among the highest honors FIFA grants, and it affirms the distinguished position that Jordanian referees have achieved—an historic milestone, 24 years after Jordan's first participation in the World Cup.
