No, they beat Indonesia 3-2.

They went through.

We had the same goal difference, the same points.

They scored and they changed the ruling to the most goals scored.

And they scored three goals, we scored one.

But we had the same goal difference, same points, and Saudi went through because they scored more goals than us.

Yeah, look, I think, Howie, that playoff, I have to say, I felt really, really sorry for Indonesia in our group because that was completely unfair, that playoff.

You had, you know, playing in Saudi and playing in Qatar.

When I went to the draw at the start of the campaign and I was with Australia, we were told that they were going to be neutral venues, those playoffs.

Okay.

And then when they did the actual draw, all of a sudden, the two highest ranked teams will host.

I thought, oh, wow, that's good.

We're going to host because Qatar were ranked 53.

Iraq was 57.

Saudi were 58.

And somehow Saudi got to host.

That group.

Somehow.

Yeah.

So then obviously Indonesia, obviously they turned up on the Monday.
