Amman, June 28 (Petra) – His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein
bin Abdullah II emphasized that the national football team and
Jordanian fans presented an exceptional model of sportsmanship and
impactful presence, successfully winning the world’s respect during
their historic participation in the 2026 World Cup.

“Yes, we did not gain points, but through the manners of the Nashama,
we won the respect of the world,” His Royal Highness said in a post
on his official Instagram account. “We saw our fringed Shemagh on the
shoulders of friends, competitors, and even security personnel and
organizers. We saw major international news agencies praising the
ethics and weighty presence of the Nashama, and we saw global
television screens celebrating the remarkable presence of Jordanian
fans.”

The Crown Prince added: “We saw social bonds among members of our
expatriate community at their finest, as they recalled and took pride
in their Jordanian identity. We saw supporters and lovers of Jordan
from all corners of the world. We lost nothing; rather, we gained 11
role models for 12 million Jordanians. This is how giving is done for
our homeland… This is how we unite under one flag; for nations are
built through unity, cohesion, ambition, hard work, and sacrifice.”

His Royal Highness continued: “I say it with pride: We are Jordan, we
are the land of the Nashama. Be proud of yourselves, Jordanians. You
are capable of reaching global levels in all fields, and the evidence
is plenty… It is the first time in the World Cup, but it will not
be the last. The ambition of Jordanians is an exceptional case.”
