The forward took part in Lebanon's first international match, against Mandatory Palestine, in 1940. He scored Lebanon's lone goal of the match,[3] assisted by Muhieddine Jaroudi of Hilmi Sports,[4] becoming his country's first international goalscorer.[5] In 1946 Cordahi also played for Beirut XI, Beirut's select team.[2]

On 18 January 1971, the General Assembly of Racing Beirut nominated Cordahi as sporting director, along with Joseph Abou Murad.[6]
