Yazan Al Naimat: Jordan defeated South Korea 2-0 through goals from Yazan Al Naimat and Mousa Al Tamari to qualify for the AFC Asian Cup final for the first time.

The two sides had played out to a 2-2 draw in the group stage. This was South Korea's fifth AFC Asian Cup semifinal in seven editions. But Jordan, ranked 64 places below South Korea, was making a first-ever appearance in the semifinals.

Jordan attacked aggressively at the beginning of the match but missed many good shooting chances. South Korea slowly grew into the match, with star striker Son Heung-min's effort in the 19th minute ruled out for offside, reports Xinhua.
