Rateb Al-Awadat (Arabic: راتب العوضات; 13 October 1970 – 26 March 2021) was a Jordanian footballer, who was a left-back who started his career with Hittin (Marka) Refugee camp[1] team then joined Al-Faisaly until he retired and became a coach.
Career
Rateb Al-Awadat played his entire career for Al-Faisaly from 1987 to 2006. He was part of the Jordanian national team from 1998 to 2008, where he earned 46 caps scoring one goal.[2]
The mark of Rateb's retirement in playing football took place in an international friendly match between his national team Jordan against Lebanon in Amman on 28 January 2008, when Jordan won 4–1. Rateb played the first 5 minutes of the match. As the match referee blew his whistle after the first 5 minutes to stop the match for Rateb to leave the field, Rateb gave the captain armband to his old international teammate Hatem Aqel as well as his #4 jersey to his old teammate of Al-Faisaly Qusai Abu Alieh.
He later became a manager at Al-Faisaly.

Al-Awadat died on 26 March 2021, aged 50.[6]
