Having reached a historic first semi-final at the continental showpiece, the 23-year-old is adamant that Jordan\u2019s amazing journey will not end despite the huge task of facing a Korea Republic side determined to end a long wait for a third AFC Asian Cup title.
\n\u201cWe are extremely happy to be in the semi-finals,\u201d said Saadeh. \u201cIt is such a pride for us to have come this far. It does put some pressure on us but we\u2019re well-trained and prepared to reach the final.<\/p>\n
\u201cMaybe many did not expect our team to reach this far but we believed that we can go far in this competition. Of course it puts pressure on us but we\u2019re ready to rewrite history.\u201d<\/p>\n
Playing his club football with Al Khor in the Qatar Stars League, Saadeh is in familiar surroundings and ready to play his role – whether in the starting XI or from off the bench. <\/p>\n
One of his three appearances as a substitute came against the Koreans in their Group E match, and the midfielder is ready to accept the challenge should head coach Hussein Ammouta call upon him.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a difficult game. The technical staff and the players are all ready to make it to the final.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe coach, assistant coach and technical staff have all helped us review the previous games and identify our mistakes.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a player, of course I\u2019m ready to play if chosen and for sure, I will give it my all to help Jordan get through to the next stage.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
