why would you want a tie in SK/Qatar game? I would rather see SK destroy Qatar.

Well! If Lebanon happens to get a point or more(this one is not likely) from Uzbekistan, then it is good if S. Korea wins against Qatar, but if Uzbekistan wins tomorrow, we need for Qatar to have at least on paper a chance to advance when it plays against Uzbekistan on the last match day for this group. Otherwise, Qatar will just hand that match to Uzbekistan since the match has become a pure formality. Having won against Lebanon and Qatra, Uzbekistan will finish with 14 points even if it loses to S. Korea while TM will only have 13 points even it beats both Qatar and Lebanon. That means we will need at least a draw against S. Korea in our last match. You can't expect the Koreans to just give us a point when they are playing at home even if they have already qualified.
A draw in Qatar-S. Korea match also means that S. Korea really needs to fight to advance. That means they will make sure to beat Uzbekistan. They will not be content with a draw in that match. Who knows? The last match day for this group may turn into a strife between Iran and S. Korea to qualify while Uzbekistan is still in.

Australia vs Oman

Game will kick off in a few minutes.

I like the Aussie TV buildup of the games.it reminds me of their premature victory buildup in Melbourne 1997 and this guy who pissed on their parade.
