Jo Jordan is one of the most popular and richest Football Player who was born on December 15, 1951 in Cleland, United Kingdom.

Jordan began his professional career in 1968 at Morton. He initially played for Morton part-time. Jordan moved to Leeds for £15,000 in 1970.

A former striker, he played for Leeds United, Manchester United, and Milan, among others at club level, as well making 52 appearances and scoring 11 goals for Scotland. As a player, he gained a fearsome ‘Jaws’ persona due to having lost two front teeth early in his career. The persona aside, he became known as a strong, fearless and committed player, with skill to match, and good aerial abilities. He was part of the successful Leeds United team of the 1970s, winning the 1973–74 Football League First Division title. Cup success was elusive however, being a losing finalist with Leeds in the 1973 European Cup Winners’ Cup Final and 1975 European Cup Final, and the 1979 FA Cup Final with Manchester United. At international level he is the only Scottish player to score in three World Cups, in 1974, 1978 and 1982.

During the game, played at Anfield in Liverpool in 1977, both Jordan and the Welsh defender David Jones went to challenge for the ball in the Welsh penalty area, from a throw-in by Scotland midfielder Asa Hartford. The referee decided Jones had handled the ball, and awarded Scotland a penalty, although it has long been debated that it was in fact Jordan’s arm which made contact with the ball. He has always denied it was. The penalty was duly converted, and along with a second goal, the 2–0 result was Scotland’s third win in the four game qualification series, seeing them qualify for the cup finals top of UEFA Group 7 with six points, ahead of Czechoslovakia on four and Wales on two.
