From "Nothingness" and with "Determination": Jordan Qualifies for the World Cup - Jordan News
In a moment when the sun of glory shone over the skies of the homeland, the name of Jordan echoed proudly across media channels and platforms, announcing its historic qualification for the FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This achievement was not merely a football victory—it was a reflection of a nation's resilience, the will of its people, and a story of struggle written in sweat, tears, and hope. اضافة اعلان The "Nashama" national team carved a path fraught with challenges, walking roads that often seemed rugged, exhausting, and nearly impossible in light of the modest sports infrastructure and limited resources compared to neighboring Arab nations. Yet—much like the nation itself, small in size but great in its people and history—it did not bow to storms, nor halt at obstacles, but pushed beyond limits with unshakable faith and unbreakable determination. From the womb of limited means, scarce resources, and humble sports facilities, emerged a generation of lions carrying Jordan's flag, forging their path in a world dominated by power and wealth. But they were the sons of willpower. They trained on basic fields, endured the unbearable, but carried in their hearts the map of a dream: Jordan in the World Cup. The Nashama proved that victories are neither bought nor gifted—they are earned through effort, and crafted by hearts that beat with love for the homeland. This team does not represent just eleven players; it carries in its jerseys the faces of millions of Jordanians who prayed with every match, cheered with every goal, and wept with the final whistle, rejoicing in the achievement and perseverance. And here is Jordan—hopeful despite constraints, steadfast despite the winds, triumphant despite doubts—writing a new chapter in its history, titled: We are here, in the heart of the world, with our feet, our sweat, and our faith. Let the world know that this nation, even when the paths are narrow, is capable of crafting miracles. Let every Jordanian be proud that the flag which will fly in the World Cup sky is the flag of a nation that knows how to turn weakness into strength, defeat into resurgence, and despair into joy. The Nashama have written a new chapter of national pride—not alone—but alongside a leader who loves his people, a crown prince who believes in his youth, and Jordanians who have been and will always be one hand and one heart behind everyone who raises Jordan's name high. Jordan's qualification for the World Cup is not just a sporting achievement—it is a national celebration of belonging and loyalty, a moment of glory added to the legacy of a great nation that, when it promises, fulfills—and when it begins a journey, it reaches the end.

New coach Gattuso vows to restore enthusiasm to battered Italy
Ammon News - Italy's new coach Gennaro Gattuso on Thursday pledged to restore enthusiasm and create "a family" at the battered national team, aiming to secure qualification for the next World Cup after the Azzurri missed out twice in a row. Gattuso replaces Luciano Spalletti, who was sacked this month following a 3-0 defeat by Norway in a World Cup qualifier. He officially departed after overseeing his final match, a 2-0 victory against Moldova. "It's a dream come true, and I certainly hope to be up to the task. I know the job won't be easy, but nothing in life is easy," said Gattuso, who recently left Croatian club Hajduk Split after a third-placed finish in the country's top flight. Nicknamed 'Ringhio' (Growler) for his tenacious attitude on the pitch, the 47-year-old earned 73 caps for the Italian national team and was a key member of the 2006 World Cup-winning squad. Fans hope his strong character can help with the task of taking the four-time world champions to next year's World Cup, which will be played in the United States, Mexico and Canada. Italy, third in World Cup qualifying Group I, will host Estonia on September 5 before taking on Israel three days later. "My goal is that whoever comes to the training ground comes with great enthusiasm and to create a family," said Gattuso, who according to a source at the Italian soccer federation (FIGC) was given a one-year contract. Gattuso spent the bulk of his playing career at AC Milan, where he won two Champions League and two Serie A titles, before returning to coach the club from 2017 to 2019. As a manager he won the Coppa Italia with Napoli in 2020. "The primary aim is to create a sense of belonging" to the Azzurri team, Gattuso told reporters during his presentation to the press at a luxury hotel in central Rome. The new coach said he believed players felt the pressure of having missed out on qualification for two World Cups in a row and that was weighing on the team's performance. "We must be good at reacting, only those who react and give it all can get out of this situation," he said. Reuters
