00:11Deux éliminés, le Bahreïn et la Chine. Un barragiste certain, l'Indonésie.
00:16Et il reste une place de qualifié directe à prendre. Elle se disputera entre l'Australie et l'Arabie Saoudite.
00:21Et justement, l'Arabie Saoudite reçoit l'Australie.
00:24Attention, une grosse différence de but en faveur des Australiens qui oblige les Saoudiens à s'imposer par au moins 4 buts d'écart.
00:30La tâche paraît assez compliquée, mais sur un seul match et à domicile, tout peut arriver.

00:55kept automatic qualification hopes alive for Reynard's team
00:58but they will need to step it up another gear tonight
01:01having only scored 6 goals in their last 9 games.
01:04Australia's slow start to the group stage is now a distant memory
01:07with Tony Popovic turning things around
01:09after taking over from Graham Arnold
01:11and if they can avoid a heavy defeat today

01:23Australia coming forward with a decent ball into the box
01:26and a decent effort that just whistles wide of the far post there
01:30Martin Boyle with good contact just going to get the direction going.
01:35A few minutes later Saudi Arabia coming back the other way
01:39ball inside to Al Brican
01:41now Aldosseri
01:43and helped over the line by Abdul Rahman Al-Abud
01:49they need another four, it's the start
01:51the Green Falcon supporters were hoping for
01:55a little bit of good fortune as it trickles its way through to Al-Abud
01:59and is never going to miss from there
02:01might the unexpected be on Saudi Arabia
02:07forward again down the left
02:09and now with Majerashi into the box
02:13and over the crossbar in the end by Al-Jewer
02:15they're certainly giving it a go here

02:25and another
02:27Australia
02:29really found their rhythm just yet

02:37but what a goal that is for the Socceroos
02:39Conor Metcalf with his first international goal
02:43Mitchell Duke with a peach of a pass inside
02:45to pick him out
02:47well taken goal as well
02:49even if it does come skimming off the surface first
02:51stoppage time of the first half here
02:55bit of a punch to the gut
02:57for Saudi Arabia with that equaliser
02:59and they get the noses back in front
03:01decent effort by Salam al-Dosseri
03:03in the edge of the penalty area there
03:07so one-all at the break
03:10still work to do for Saudi Arabia
03:12here in the second half
03:14ball rolling again
03:15in the second period of play
03:17lovely ball over the top
03:18Martin Boyle through on goal here
03:20this is a really good save in the end

03:25just about gets a hand to it
03:27much better from Australia
03:29early in this second half
03:31just stepped it up a gear
03:33week it comes into the middle
03:35and they take the lead
03:36Mitchell Duke with a classy header
03:39no one really picking him up
03:41finds a gap in between the two defenders
03:43to get on the Martin Boyle delivery
03:45and Australia back in control now
03:48time running out for Saudi Arabia

03:53and they need them quickly
03:54Salam al-Dosseri

04:01first contact was outside
04:03second inside penalties given
04:05Salam al-Dosseri
04:07with the penalty
04:08and it's saved by Matt Ryan
04:11and if it wasn't wrapped up already
04:13it certainly is now
04:14so Australia come from behind
04:18to secure second place in Group C
04:20and with its automatic qualification
04:22for the World Cup next summer
04:24Saudi Arabia must settle for third

05:03and the keeper can't keep it out
05:05Mito's cross

05:11but couldn't stop it from crossing the line
05:16short corner
05:17in towards Kubo after the back heel
05:20Kubo will go towards the near post
05:22and it comes back to Kubo Takafusa
05:24into the roof of the net
05:26an emphatic finish
05:28after Machino sent the loose ball back his way
05:30and Japan are cruising already
05:33Kubo with the fleet footwork
05:36kept his head up
05:37and found the finish
05:38the pass is sent in by Machino towards Kubo
05:44he can only steer it
05:46across the face of goal and wide
05:48it would have been a lovely goal
05:50Japan not far away from making it 3-0
05:54Kubo in the centre
05:58he's got space to slip the through ball in
06:00for Kamada Daichi
06:01Kamada cutting through the defence
06:04and applies the final touch too
06:06Japan do make it 3-0 before the break

07:15down the left hand side
07:16more cuts across towards Nakamura
07:18and the finish is a simple one from Hosoya

07:26Indonesia will have to dust themselves down
07:28before the next round
07:29Japan finished with a flourish
07:306-0 the final score
07:32it's the final game of Group C in AFC Asian qualifying for both China PR and Bahrain
07:46both sides already know that World Cup 2026 is unfortunately out of reach
07:51there's still a chance to sign off with a win in Chongqing
07:54China's last victory came courtesy of a late Zhang Yu Ning goal in their last meeting with Bahrain
07:59since then though there have been four straight defeats for Branko Ivanovic's side
08:04for Bahrain
08:05early promise after taking four points off Australia at the end of last year has now slipped away
08:10leaving them too far adrift of Indonesia in fourth place
08:17Bahrain in white
08:18spread the play over to the right hand side
08:20looking to get something out of this
08:23early on and they go for the shot from distance
08:26that was a decent effort from Mahdi Al Humaydan
08:30just smashed it towards the goal
08:32but keeper Wang Dalai got behind it
08:34both coaches happy with the efforts of their players there
08:38Ali Madan now for Bahrain

08:45brings it onto his left foot
08:47sends over a good delivery
08:49Al Humaydan with the header from the far post
08:51it was a nice try from the number 20
08:53steered it towards the target
08:55the keeper was able to get across again
08:58that's given away and now there might be some space down the right hand side for China
09:05Zhang is going to stop this one from rolling over the byline waiting for some movement in the middle
09:11he did have a teammate there Wang Yudong in the box
09:15could only turn it over
09:17China's best chance so far with just over half an hour played
09:20good movement in the centre
09:24no goals in that first half and only a few chances
09:26nil nil so far
09:30China moving it nicely out to the left hand side
09:32Wang Yudong
09:34and Lutfala had to make a save rather awkwardly there
09:37the chance still alive maybe for China
09:39is cleared out of the box and the whistle has gone
09:42to relieve the pressure
09:43good shot from Wang Yudong
09:47Lutfala getting the punch on it
09:49space again on the left hand side for China
09:54they've been the better team in this second half
09:56they'll cut back and keep moving
09:59Wang to the edge of the area
10:01took it across onto his right foot
10:04hit the target
10:06Lutfala able to get
10:08comfortably behind it
10:10still needed two attempts to gather it
10:12rain going forward towards the edge of the area
10:16a shooting chance
10:17keeper at full stretch there
10:19Kamil Alaswad getting the shot away eventually
10:22that was a decent effort
10:25had some sting behind the left-footed strike
10:29China will launch one over the top of the defence
10:34it's bouncing awkwardly in behind
10:37the Bahrain defenders dealt with it
10:39they dealt with the initial attack
10:41China have had another go at getting it into the box
10:44and did it hit a hand
10:45the referee says yes it did
10:48Wang Ximing with the cross
10:52Hussein Aleka with the block
10:54the VAR had a look but no change to the initial decision
10:5718 year old Wang Yudong will step up
11:00and surely he's won this for China
11:031-0 late in the day
11:06Wang Yudong scores from the spots
11:13kept his cool
11:16to the delight of the home fans in Chongqing
