The Asian Cup Round of 16 started on Sunday night (28th), with Australia controlling the game from all over the field, and eventually beating Indonesia 4-0, to take the lead in the Round of 8.
Australia has always been practicing the strategy of winning from a position of stability. Before the match against Indonesia, who is ranked 146th in the world, the manager, Mr. Allwright, admitted that he would be cautious and would not dare to take the opponent lightly. Just 12 minutes into the match, Australia's midfielder Jaechen Ayun hit a cross from the right side of the field, which hit Indonesia's defender Bagot in the net, and opened the scoring for the first time. Just before half-time, a cross from the right by Gervin Jones made it 2-0 at the near post for Paul Martin.
