AMMAN — Hussein Irbid were officially crowned 2024–25 Jordanian CFI Pro League champions on Saturday, sealing their second league title in club history after a thrilling final round that saw them edge past arch-rivals Wihdat in a dramatic conclusion to the season.
Entering the final match day one point behind Wihdat, Hussein Irbid, referred to as 'royal club', delivered a commanding 4–1 victory over Shabab Al-Ordon. Meanwhile, Wihdat faltered with a late draw against Ramtha, turning the title race on its head and handing Hussein Irbid the championship by a single point.
The season was marked by determination, high-stakes drama, and crucial moments, none more pivotal than Abdullah Manaysah's 90th-minute equalizer against Wihdat in the penultimate round. That goal, now etched in club folklore, kept Hussein's title hopes alive and proved to be the defining moment of the campaign.
Hussein Irbid finished the season with 53 points, narrowly edging Wihdat's 52, to conclude one of the tightest and most captivating title races in recent memory.
This triumph marked Hussein Irbid's second league title and their second in as many seasons, firmly establishing the club as a rising force in Jordanian football.
Breaking the long-standing dominance of traditional giants Wihdat and Faisaly, Hussein Irbid have announced themselves as the Kingdom's new football powerhouse.
