Tajikistan and Jordan meet at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium in Al Rayyan, Qatar on Friday (February 2) in the quarter-finals of the 2023 Asian Cup.
In their first appearance in the competition, Tajikistan continued their dream run, ousting Asian heavyweights UAE on penalties in the last 16.
Both teams played to a 1:1 draw in normal time. Vahdat Hanonov’s 30th-minute opener for the Persian Lions was canceled out by Khalifa Al Hammadi five minutes after the break.
In the shootout, Caio Canedo missed his attempt for Sons of Zayed, while Tajikistan sent all five of theirs through to reach the last eight.
Meantime. Jordan, who finished third in Group E after picking up four points from three matches, eliminated Iraq in the first knockout round.
Yazan Al-Naimat put the Chivalrous Ones 1-0 up just before the break, but the Lions of Mesopotamia turned the game around in the second half.
On the brink of elimination, Jordan fired two goals deep into stoppage time, through Yazan Al-Arab in the 95th minute and Nizar Al-Rashdan two minutes later. The last-gasp win saw the Middle Eastern side reach the last eight of the tournament for the first time since 2011.
Tajikistan possible starting lineup:
Yatimov; Safarov, Khanonov, Dzhuraboyev, Nazarov; Shukorov, Rakmimov, Umarbayev; Soiroz, Samiev, Khamrokulov
Jordan possible starting lineup:
Abu Layla; Nasib, Al-Arab, Al-Ajalin; Haddad, Al-Rashdan, Rateb, Al-Mardi; Al-Taamari, Al-Naimat, Al-Dardour
