Muharraq: Jordan became the first four-time West Asian champions, edging out host nation Bahrain 1-0 to retain the WAFF Women's Championship title they won in 2014, while Lebanon beat Palestine to finish third.
JORDAN 1-0 BAHRAIN
A memorable goal from legendary skipper Stephanie Al Naber sealed Jordan's fourth title, as they bettered the solitary point they needed to secure the title by claiming all three against gallant Bahrain.
Only Al Naber will truly know whether her 67th-minute effort was intended as a cross or shot, but there can no argument about the final result, with the veteran midfielder's effort floating into the top corner of the Bahraini net from fully 25 yards.
