Hassan Abdel-Fattah (Arabic: حسن عبد الفتاح; born 17 August 1982) is a Jordanian footballer of Palestinian descent. He plays as an midfielder for Al-Wehdat and the Jordan national football team.
International career
Apparently, Abdel-Fattah had not make any appearances or did not participate in any of Jordan's 2011 AFC Asian Cup qualification matches. However, he was instrumental in Jordan's quarter-final run in the 2011 AFC Asian Cup held in Qatar. After his great performances in 2010 and in the 2011 Asian Cup, including the goal he scored against Japan, he was first asked to play in Al-Arabi and Zamalek, but somehow found himself in Kuwait SC, which he scored only 2 goals for, and they were both in the 2011 AFC Cup. He also scored goals for Al-Karamah in the 2010 AFC Cup.
Abdel-Fattah was first famous for leading his national team to a 2-2 draw with South Korea in 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifiers on 31 May 2008, by scoring a brace after entering as a substitute for his teammate Mohammad Muneer. He is also known for leading Jordan to a 2-0 victory over Turkmenistan in Amman during their 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign.
In the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualification, he scored 6 goals; a double brace against Nepal on 23 July 2011 at home in the second round and two goals against Iraq, one in Arbil, and another in Amman.
