Guest jckkeith Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Australia qualified for the 2011 Asian Cup finals with a 1-0 defeat of Indonesia on Wednesday, while Kuwait and Jordan snatched the last berths at the tournament on the final day of qualifying.Pim Verbeek's Socceroos dominated possession for long periods of their game in Brisbane but it was a solitary goal from defender Mark Milligan in the 42nd minute that wrapped up all three points. Australia topped Group A with three wins, two draws and a defeat to their name, while Indonesia finished rock bottom on three points."I can only be happy with the result, but of course we would have been happier if we had scored more goals," said Verbeek. But we had so many chances. We should have scored more goals, but I'm satisfied that we scored another at the very end.Honda plays in quite a different style to old days. He also defended very well. His presence improves our performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
