The winner in a tense fight with Peru for the right to go to Qatar was only declared by a series of penalties after the match.
Australia qualifies for the World Cup in Qatar. This happened after the Australians, who represent Asia in the selection, won the intercontinental playoffs of Peru.
The main and extra time of the match did not announce the winner, and the teams had to make a penalty shoot-out. In this lottery, representatives of the “green continent” became even more nervous, despite the fact that it was the Australians who failed to score the first blow in the series.
So, in the upcoming World Cup Australia will perform in a quartet with France, Denmark and Tunisia.
