ABU GHAUSH VISITS JORDAN U17 TEAM

Olympic taekwondo gold medallist Ahmad Abu Ghaush has paid a surprise visit to the Jordan team preparing to take on the world's best at the FIFA U17 Women's World Cup. The girls will be playing Spain in Friday's opener and were delivered some words of advice and encouragement from the history maker. "I received incredible support from Jordan during the Olympics so I was only too willing to show my support to the girls when the Jordan Olympic Committee asked me. "I told them that we are all right behind them and that all they can do is try their very best. Win or lose they are already our heroes." Abu Ghaush has just returned to light training following his gold medal winning performance in Rio de Janeiro on August 18.
