Long balls gets a throw and we go all the way back. 

They have no idea what to do. They can't see a way past the block and so are just passing it for the sake of it. The long ball could easily have resulted in a fast break for KOR who at least seem to understand how to adjust tempo.

No one in the Aussie camp knows the risk that if Chinese Taipei beat Cambodia we'd end up in 2nd place anyway.

Now it is Korea's turn to pass it around without trying to go forward.

SK seem happy with a draw too. I think it gives both teams a point more in the 2nd placed rankings instead of risking only having 3.

several teams with 2 wins also. A draw gives us a much better chance. Finishing second does not guarantee us a spot in the next round.

Oh well the first 65 mins were enjoyable enough. Nice comeback by Korea, changed their attitude.


By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

several teams with 2 wins also. A draw gives us a much better chance. Finishing second does not guarantee us a spot in the next round.

with a +6 goal difference a draw does guarantee us to advance.
There is no mathematical way to not advance

If other games between 1st and second end in draws, the second placed team from that group will be below us on GD
If one team wins, the second placed team from that group ends up with 2 wins and a loss, whilst we have 2 wins and a draw.

Depends on the other game in the group but both teams go through either way.

We finish this tournament undefeated.

Two 6-0 wins, followed by a 2-2 draw with regional powerhouse Korea.

Sensational results from Arnie 👏

Depends on the result of the Cambodia v Taiwan game. Either way, we qualify. (Al least according to wiki).

Results wise it is a result and it will look good on the history cards, but that last portion was horrible, unacceptable.

We'd be safe as houses with our GD in 2nd if it wasn't for Pakistan dropping out and making results against top 3 only counting for the top 4 runners up. Just have to wait and see re the other groups.
