AFC - Matchday 5 recap
Was late this morning, so I'll just recap with results and where they stand at the halfway point of qualifying.

Group A
South Korea came from a goal down to beat Uzbekistan and go 2nd in the group a point behind Iran. Uzbeks a point further back in third. Syria-Iran was played on a pitch so wet that even long passes were often stopping dead on the pitch. Stunned no one got killed.

South Korea 2-1 Uzbekistan
China 0-0 Qatar
Syria 0-0 Iran

Group B
Big win for Japan though conceded needlessly late to remain in second behind Saudi Arabia. Australia surprisingly had to come from behind to draw in Thailand and with the last game in progress they are level on points (for now) with UAE for third place.

Japan 2-1 Saudi Arabia
Thailand 2-2 Australia
UAE 1-0 Iraq (30')
