Jordan’s journey to the Asian Cup semi-finals has been marked by some impressive performances. In the group stage, they showcased their prowess with a commanding 4-0 victory against Malaysia and a hard-fought 2-2 draw against South Korea. A 1-0 triumph over Bahrain in their final group match solidified their place in the knockout stage.

Their last-16 clash was arguably one of the most dramatic seen at the tournament so far as they won 3-2 against Iraq in normal time, despite trailing as late as the 94th minute. With Iraq down to 10 men, Jordan capitalised with an equaliser from Yazan Al-Arab in the 95th minute and a winner two minutes later from Nizar Al-Rashdan. Less drama was on display in their quarter-final as they squeezed past Tajikistan by a single goal – an own goal in the 66th minute by Vahdat Hanonov – to reach the AFC Asian Cup semis for the first time ever.

Drawing inspiration from their earlier 2-2 deadlock against South Korea in the group stage, Jordan can enter the semi-final with confidence they can match it against a familiar foe. However, the absence of striker Ali Olwan and defender Salem Al-Ajalin due to suspension adds an extra challenge at both ends of the pitch.

With Olwan Jordan’s leading player for successful take-ons in the final third (12), much of the attacking threat will be placed on the shoulders of Mousa Tamari out on the right wing. Al-Ajalin, whose been deployed in every match at the tournament in the left centre-back role, will be missed within the backline as a great option to build attacks on the left side, where he’s consistently linked up with winger Mahmoud Al Mardi.

South Korea’s journey to the semis has been characterised by resilience and heroics late on in matches. They started the tournament well with a 3-1 win over Bahrain, before two draws against Jordan (2-2) and Malaysia (3-3) saw them finish second in Group E. Despite this, they did finish the group stage with eight goals – a tally no other side could do better than.

Finishing second in the group handed them a tricky last-16 tie with Saudi Arabia, where they looked to be heading out until Cho Gue-sung’s equaliser in the 99th minute. They held out in extra time, before dispatching of the Saudis 4-2 in a penalty shootout to set up a quarter-final meeting with Australia.

They again did it the hard way as they advanced past the Socceroos, conceding first and only equalising deep into added time at the end of the match via a Hwang Hee-chan penalty. It was Son Heung-min who ended as the hero on this occasion, with his exceptional free kick in extra time sending South Korea into the semis.

With South Korea already being taken to extra time twice in this tournament, they could do without the same again. Tottenham forward Son has played every single minute of their campaign so far, being on the pitch for 601 minutes, including all added time across their five matches – the most by a player at this tournament. His three goals are level-best for South Korea at this tournament alongside Lee Kang-in, with the 22-year-old Paris Saint-Germain star the leading chance creator at the Asian Cup so far (17).

Jürgen Klinsmann will have to do without talismanic centre-back Kim Min-jae for this game, however. The Bayern Munich defender is suspended, with Son’s leadership even more important with such a senior figure of the squad out of action for this crucial tie.

Jordan vs South Korea Head-to-Head

Their AFC Asian Cup 2023 group stage meeting was the first international between South Korea and Jordan in nearly 10 years, after previously playing a friendly match in November 2014.

The group stage game between these two nations ended 2-2, with Son opening the scoring from a ninth-minute penalty kick. Jordan took a shock 2-1 lead into half-time, however, following an own goal via Park Yong-woo and a first-half injury time strike from forward Yazan Al-Naimat. They nearly hung on for a crucial victory, but South Korea forced an added time equaliser via an Yazan Al-Arab own goal.

A point was more than deserved for South Korea based on the match stats, with them attempting nearly twice as many shots as Jordan (23 vs 12) and posting a much higher expected goals (xG) total overall (2.15 vs 0.27).

South Korea are the favourites to progress to the AFC Asian Cup 2023 final in this tie with the Opta supercomputer. The Taegeuk Warriors won 55.9% of the 10,000 pre-match simulations inside 90 minutes – something South Korea would surely be happy with having to go through extra time in each of the last two rounds.

Jordan won just over one-in-five of the simulations ahead of kick-off (21.7%) and are the tournament outsiders among the four teams left at this Asian Cup in Qatar.

Jordan and South Korea lock horns at the Ahmed bin Ali Stadium on Tuesday in the semi-finals of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup, in a repeat of their group fixture.

Having only narrowly managed to progress from Group E, finishing in third place with just four points in three games, Jordan have surpassed expectations in the knockout rounds.

The Chivalrous Ones beat gritty Iraq in the round of 16, courtesy of two stoppage-time goals, before seeing off debutants Tajikistan 1-0 in the quarter-finals.

Jordan are making their first appearance in the semis and won't hold anything back in their bid to reach the finals. Hussein Ammouta's side had nearly beaten South Korea in their second group stage clash, but an own goal from Yazan Al-Arab in stoppage time made it 2-2.

Since then, the Taegeuk Warriors have drawn twice more, first with Malaysia (3-3) in their final group fixture and then with Saudi Arabia (1-1) in the last-16 before prevailing 4-2 on penalties. Then in the quarter-finals, Korea edged out Australia in extra-time, with Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min netting the winner in the 104th minute.

Jordan vs South Korea Prediction

Jordan have been the surprise package of the tournament and will give South Korea another tough run for their money.

The Taegeuk Warriors have shown they won't go down without a fight, and their determination could see them edge out their rivals from the Middle East, albeit narrowly.

On Tuesday the first semifinal match of the 2023 Asian Cup will take place as Jordan and South Korea face off for a place in the final. The winner of this match will face the winner of the second semifinal between Iran and Qatar, which will take place on Wednesday. Jordan have reached the semifinals of the Asian Cup for the first time in their history, surpassing their previous best achievements of two quarter finals in 2004 and 2019. On the other side, the team coached by Jurgen Klinsmann have won this competition twice, back in 1956 and 1960, and in 2015 lost the final against an Australia team coached by the current Tottenham manager, Ange Postecoglou.

The coach said in the pre-game press conference, "It's very, very psychological. It's a mental thing. It's why I've always said that a tournament is mental. You've got to build that confidence, you've got to be prepared for a marathon. Now we go towards the end of that marathon. And hopefully, we can win it all.

Jordan vs. South Korea: what to know about the match?

Jordan has reached the semi-finals of the Asian Cup for the first time in its history. Their previous best achievements were quarter-finals appearances in 2004 and 2019. This is only Jordan's fifth participation in the continental championship. Interestingly, Jordan is the only team to reach the quarter-finals and, consequently, the semi-finals, entering the playoffs from the third position in the group. They were in the same group as their current opponent, and they drew 2-2 in the group stage. In the Round of 16, Jordan defeated Iraq (3-2), and in the quarter-finals, they triumphed over Tajikistan (1-0).

South Korea is a two-time champion of Asia, but their titles came in 1956 and 1960. In recent years, the team consistently reaches the playoffs but falls short of clinching the championship. In 2019, they were stopped by the eventual champions, Qatar, in the quarter-finals, and in 2015, they lost in the final to Australia. In the current tournament, South Korea secured the second spot in their group and, on the way to the semi-finals, defeated Saudi Arabia (2-1) and avenged their 2015 defeat by eliminating Australia (2-1) in the quarter-finals.

South Korea vs. Jordan prediction

South Korea survived a scare with a 2-2 draw against Jordan in the group stages to eventually reach the knockout phase and they are favourites to go on and win the AFC Asian Cup title.

Jordan have proven to be a tough opponent for more established nations but South Korea's firepower should edge a final place for Son and Co.

Jordan have made it through to their first semi-finals of the AFC Asian Cup as they defeated Tajikistan in the quarter-finals. The Chivalrous are yet to defeat their semi-final opponents in their history as they look to continue their fairytale in the continental competition.

South Korea have been heavily dependent on some last-minute heroics from their forwards in the knockout stages. Hwang Hee-chan equalized the billing against Australia in the 96th minute while Spurs' forward Son Heung-Min thundered the winner in extra time to help the Asian heavyweights march into the last four.
