JORDAN STAY ON TRACK FOR OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION
Jan 18, 2016
Jordan's U23 football team remained on track to qualify for the Rio Summer Olympics following their 0-0 draw with the UAE on Sunday night.
The point keeps them top of Group D in the Asian U23 Cup which is a qualifying tournament to this summer's Olympics, where the top three will go through.
Jordan are on four points, and lead the UAE on goal difference with Australia in third on three points after they beat bottom side Vietnam, who Jordan beat 3-1 in their first game.
Al Nashama will only need to draw with Australia in their final game to guarantee a place in the quarter finals.
The Olympic Games football tournament is only open to U23 teams, and Jordan has never qualified to the event before.
