Abdel-Ilah Yusef Abed Al-Hanahneh (born in 1984) is a Jordanian footballer who is a right back for Al-Faisaly (Amman). He is a member of the Jordan national football team.
Career
His first international match with the Jordan national team was against Uzbekistan in a friendly on August 13, 2012, in Amman. He was asked by the Jordan national team to take Khalil Bani Attiah's place as right back for Jordan in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying match between Jordan and Australia on September 11, 2012, in Amman, since Bani Attiah was suspended from playing that match after receiving two bookings in the 2014 WC qualifications and Al-Hanahneh was one of the other best Jordanian right backs, so Adnan Hamad chose Al-Hanahneh him because he could not risk the loss Jordan could go through if they didn't have a Jordanian right back skilled or experienced enough to stand a chance against strong teams like Australia.
