Australia missed several opportunities in a frustrating 0-0 draw against Saudi Arabia during their World Cup qualifying match on Thursday evening. Both teams struggled to find their rhythm, yet each side left the pitch regretting their failure to secure a win. The Socceroos once again faced the issue of missed chances, while the Green Falcons came agonizingly close to a last-minute victory. As the match approached its conclusion, with time running out and both teams lacking in offensive creativity during the second half, a free kick led to a dramatic moment. Sultan Al-Ghannam found himself in the right place at the right time, striking the ball low into the bottom corner of the net just as the clock ticked into the 95th minute. The stadium erupted with excitement as Saudi fans and players celebrated what seemed to be a stunning late goal. However, the joy was short-lived. The goal was disallowed, leaving the match in a stalemate. Both teams will reflect on their missed chances as they continue their campaigns in a tightly contested World Cup qualifying group.
