Jordan coach Adnan Hamad had expressed concerns about the artificial pitch at the Jalan Besar Stadium but the synthetic surface didn't appear to effect the 2011 AFC Cup quarter-finalists as they recorded their third successive win in the Brazil 2014 qualifiers.
Abdallah Deeb, who was one of nine Al Wehdat players absent from the warm-up match against Thailand due to their participation in the first leg of the AFC Cup semi-final against Nasaf, made a telling contribution on his return to the international fold when he put the visitors 1-0 up with 11 minutes played.
Anas Bani Yaseen, a scorer in Jordan's 2-1 victory over Singapore in the qualifiers for Qatar 2011, doubled the Hashemite Kingdom's lead nine minutes after the interval before Ahmad Ibrahim scored the third and final goal in the 63rd minute.
