00:00On passe au groupe B où on connaît déjà les deux qualifiés, ce sont la Corée du Sud et la Jordanie.
00:12On connaît un barragiste, c'est l'Irak. On connaît un éliminé, c'est le Koweït.
00:17Il reste une place à prendre, une place de barragiste qui se disputera entre Oman et la Palestine.
00:21Et justement, la Palestine reçoit Oman dans un match à fort enjeu.
00:26Il y aura un éliminé et un barragiste au terme de cette rencontre.
00:30A blockbuster encounter in Prospect on the last matchday in Group B of the AFC Asian qualifiers
00:39as Palestine face Oman.
00:41Palestine need a win to secure a place in the playoffs.
00:44Oman are in the box seat as they're ahead of Palestine by one point coming into the final round,
00:50so a draw would be good enough for them.
00:52Palestine have won their last two, including the crucial 2-0 win over Kuwait last week,
00:57Tama Sayan and Wassam Abu Ali scored the goals to keep their hopes alive.
01:02Oman were defeated 3-0 by Jordan last time out to dash their hopes of automatic qualification.
01:07And it's Palestine who make the better start, as there's an early corner for them.
01:14The cross will come back in here.
01:16And it's Tebanini, and it comes crashing back off the bar there.
01:21Nearly the dream start for Palestine.
01:24As Sayan got the cross in, and Tebanini so unlucky.
01:27Oman won the reverse fixture by one goal to nil as they come forward for the first time here in the 28th minute.
01:35Rabia Al-Alaoui with the effort as he strode down the left-hand side, but his shot eventually over.
01:42First sign of real danger there from Oman.
01:46Goalless at half-time, Oman under pressure, but holding on to a playoff place.
01:51Early in the second half, Palestine on the front foot.
01:56With another early corner in the half.
01:59It will be Khayad to take it here.
02:02As he whips it towards a near post, and it ends up in the back of the net.
02:06It's Khairoub with the header 4-1-0.
02:10That's a massive goal as Palestine leap-rogue Oman into the playoff places as it stands.
02:16Coming towards the hour mark, and Oman looking to react to falling behind as they attack down the left-hand side.
02:24Rabia Al-Alaoui is picked out, and he goes for the low strike.
02:29Just wide there.
02:30But Oman really pushing for the equaliser.
02:3418 minutes remaining now as Palestine play it out from the back.
02:38Looking to go on the counter-attack as Harib al-Sadi there slides in late on Hamdan.
02:44And that's his second yellow.
02:47He's shown red.
02:48The veteran really should know better.
02:51As Palestine are a man up with under 20 minutes to go.
02:55However, it's Oman who go on the attack here.
02:59As the cross comes in, just under 15 minutes to go.
03:02And Al-Sabi just sends the header wide at the far post.
03:09Less than 10 minutes remaining as Palestine come forward.
03:13Less than Abu Ali here with some strong play on the left-hand side.
03:18Can he get a shot away?
03:20He does, and it's a vital stop there by Al-Rashidi.
03:24Almost 2-0, and the clincher there for Palestine.
03:27Denied by the keeper.
03:29Now deep into stoppage time.
03:32Oman are throwing everything at Palestine.
03:35As the ball is thrown forward.
03:39And Al-Hasadi goes down, and it's a foul.
03:42It's a penalty.
03:43Late, late drama.
03:46As the penalty is awarded with seconds to go.
03:49VAR having a quick look at it, but it is really in, no doubt.
03:56Issam Al-Sabi then steps up and slots it home for the equaliser.
04:02Oman snatched the playoff place away from Palestine with that late, late penalty.
04:0897th minute from the coolest player on the park, Al-Sabi.
04:11It was a gutsy performance from Palestine, but Oman kept calm.
04:16They were down to 10 men.
04:18They still managed to draw level late on, and they take 4th place.
04:22What a finish to qualification.
04:34It's top versus bottom on the final match day in Group B as Korea Republic hosts Q8.
04:39Korea Republic confirmed their spot at the FIFA World Cup for the 11th consecutive time last time out,
04:45as they defeated Iraq 2-0.
04:47Kim Jin-kyu and Oh Hyun-kyu got the goals after coming on as subs.
04:52The latter earned a starting place after that fine performance.
04:56Q8 are yet to win and stand no chance of getting a playoff place.
05:00The 2-0 loss to Palestine on match day 9, condemning them to a bottom-placed finish.
05:05Juan Antonio Pizzi's side will be going all out for the win.
05:08They've lost five consecutive matches against today's opponents.
05:13And Q8 are made to suffer in the opening to this one, with Korea Republic well in control.
05:18Into the 11th minute as the ball is swung over,
05:21and the header off the post there from Bae Jun-ho.
05:26Seol Yong-woo, it was, creating the first opportunity.
05:29It just deflects off the defender as well there, and finally off the woodwork.
05:34Half an hour gone now as the corner's swung in, and finally it is 1-0 to Korea Republic.
05:40John Jin-woo it is, who puts the home side ahead right on the half hour.
05:46Wang Inbion with the corner, and this time no let-off for Q8.
05:50A strange goal, but Korea Republic won't care.
05:57Just a couple of minutes later, and the next corner.
06:01In it comes, it's a bullet header, and that's a wonderful save from Abdul Khabur.
06:06Wang Do-jae it was, with the near post header.
06:09Ooh, he's pumped away.
06:12Half-time 1-0, the scoreline kept down by the Q8 keeper.
06:16Into the second period as Korea Republic continue to press for the cushion,
06:21and they've got it here in the 51st minute.
06:26Lee Kang in with the finish.
06:30As Bae Jun-ho puts a brilliant ball in behind for him.
06:33It's a tight angle.
06:36But it's a great finish past the keeper, this time from Lee Kang in.
06:4054th minute, as the next ball comes in.
06:43Korea Republic looking to make it free, and they do.
06:47It's a superb finish from Oh Hyun-kyu.
06:52Bae Jun-ho with the assist again, just knocking the ball down.
06:57That's a smart turn from Oh Hyun-kyu.
07:01No chance for the keeper at all.
07:03Korea Republic are really running away with this match now.
07:11Kuwait seem completely demoralized here.
07:15And they slackly give the ball away in midfield once more,
07:19and the ball is put through.
07:21It could be four, but it's off the far post.
07:24Oh Hyun-kyu can't add his second.
07:28The 69th minute, and finally a chance for Kuwait from this corner.
07:32The flick on, and then it's volleyed over by Fahad Al-Hajiri.
07:36He should have done better.
07:38Korea Republic hit the woodwork again.
07:41And is Kuwait struggling to get the ball clear?
07:43And then it's finally deflected in for 4-0.
07:48Lee Jae-sung with the finish.
07:51After Kuwait, unable to clear their lines.
07:56Following the corner.
07:58It is poor defending.
07:59And the deflection means it's 4-0.
08:0474th minute now.
08:06Next attack from Korea Republic as Seol Yong-woo drives over.
08:11And following that, a quiet end to the match as it ends 4-0 to Korea Republic.
08:17They top the group as poor Kuwait finish bottom with only five points on the board.
08:21Jordan secured their first ever ticket to a World Cup with an emphatic 3-0 win against Oman on Matchday 9.
08:40And finished their memorable group stage by welcoming playoff-bound Iraq to the Oman International Stadium on the final day of action in Group B.
08:47Ali Al-1's impressive hat-trick against Oman last time out sealed the deal for Jordan, sending the country into pandemonium.
08:54But the hosts will want to finish on a high again tonight before their inaugural qualification is officially complete.
09:00It was heartbreak for Iraq on Matchday 9 as defeat to Korea Republic brought an end to any hopes of automatic qualification for them.
09:07They must now navigate through the playoffs.
09:09Into the action we go.
09:11Two minutes in.
09:12It's Iraq coming down the right here.
09:14Ibrahim Bayesh with an early cross into the box.
09:18And striker Ayman Hussain with a decent header.
09:21Yassid Abu Laila able to get both hands on the ball with relative ease in the end of it.
09:27Six minutes.
09:29Iraq continue their promising start to proceedings.
09:34Ayman Hussain making a nuisance of himself up front.
09:36Sends it out wide.
09:40Sees the ball come back his way.
09:41And again Hussain with the header.
09:43But again, Abu Laila with the save to keep it out and keep things at 0-0.
09:49Eighteenth minutes.
09:51First opportunity for Jordan.
09:52And the audacious attempt shall we say.
09:57Right.
09:58Fair distance out from Al-Rashtan.
10:00No troubles for the keeper though.
10:02The other way.
10:03Iraq looking dangerous again.
10:05Find themselves inside.
10:06Jordan penalty area here.
10:08Ball across.
10:09To the near post.
10:11Ayman Hussain.
10:11Not sure if he actually got a touch on that.
10:15And whether Yazan al-Arab put together some good defending instead.
10:22Twenty-fourth minute.
10:23Next chance for Iraq.
10:25Again Abu Laila called into action this time.
10:28Denying Osama Rashid.
10:29Good strike.
10:31Even better stop though.
10:36Just before the break.
10:37Jordan.
10:38Rare venture forward.
10:39Too many opportunities in the first 45.
10:42This is the pick of the bunch.
10:44Yazan al-Naymat with the header.
10:46Slightly off balance and leaning back.
10:48Unable to keep it down though.
10:54So both sets of players head down the tunnel.
10:570-0 the score.
10:58And into the second 45.
11:01Jordan.
11:02And early opportunity here in the 56th.
11:05And a really, really good ball.
11:07Across the face of goal from Almardi.
11:09Ali Al-Arab does his best to get on the end of it.
11:12Makes contact with the ball.
11:13But can't guide it towards goal.
11:15Clips it well wide.
11:17It's past the hour mark now.
11:19Jordan.
11:19Much better in this second half.
11:21Next opportunity.
11:23Shot from a decent area there for Almardi.
11:27Might wrap his boot around it.
11:30Seems like a good two meters wide of goal.
11:32Abdu Karim with a free kick for Iraq here in the 77th.
11:37And it's the breakthrough.
11:40Saja Jassim closest to it.
11:44Whether or not he got a touch on it.
11:46I'm not so sure.
11:48Abdu Karim with plenty of whip on the delivery.
11:51There's all sorts of problems.
11:52I don't think Jassim does get a touch.
11:58Time running out for Jordan here.
12:00And on to end their group stage on a high.
12:04And if misses like that won't be the case.
12:06Ali Al-Wan heads it down into the ground.
12:08And then up and over.
12:10So in the end, Iraq take all three points on the final match day.
12:13To take their tally in third to 15.
12:15As they move on to the playoffs.
12:17While Jordan automatically qualified.
12:18Despite a disappointing end to the group stage.
12:38Fin de parcours cruel pour la Palestine.
12:41Qui pensait tenir sa place de barragiste.
12:43A 11 contre 10 à la 95ème minute.
12:45Et puis est arrivé ce pénalty regrettable.
12:47Alors un pénalty qui va faire beaucoup parler certainement.
12:50Mais même involontaire.
12:52Une faute reste une faute.
12:54Même si on voit clairement que le joueur palestinien.
12:56Ne voit pas arriver son adversaire dans son dos.
12:57Il a les yeux en l'air rivés sur le ballon.
13:00Mais une faute peut également être sanctionnable.
13:02Même si elle est involontaire.
13:03Et c'est en l'occurrence ce qui a été sanctionné.
13:05Par l'arbitre de la rencontre.
13:07Oman obtient donc à l'arracher sa place de barragiste.
13:10Tout comme l'Irak qui était déjà qualifié.
13:12Le 1 à Corée du Sud finit sur une bonne note.
13:154-0 contre le Kuwait.
13:17Et la Jordanie complète ce tableau déqualifié.
13:194-0 contre le Kuwait.
