Two defensive errors cost Syria a place in the knockout stage of the Asian Cup as Jordan came from a goal down at the Qatar Sports Club Stadium to book a last quarter-final clash with Uzbekistan.
Mohamad Al Zino gave Syria a 15th-minute lead but Ali Dyab’s own goal levelled the Group B contest and the defender then failed to deal with Amer Shafri’s long goal kick which allow Odai Al Saify to grab the winner in the 59th minute.
