On June 7, it will be known which team of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) will face the fifth-ranked in the Conmebol qualifiers, for a quota at the Qatar 2022 World Cup. On that day in Doha, Australia and the United Arab Emirates, they will play the final of the Asian Repechage. A match between two totally opposite football styles and stories.
After a few long qualifiers, the teams that will represent the AFC in the next World Cup tournament have been defined: Iran, South Korea, Japan and Saudi Arabia will be responsible for representing Asian football in Qatar by directly achieving their qualification.
On the one hand, the United Arab Emirates won its pass after beating South Korea 1-0 with a goal from Hareb Abdullah and finished third in group A. The team led by Argentina's Rodolfo Arruabarrena, is still on track to qualify for their first world cup. To achieve this, he must first beat Australia, six times World Cup winner and who finished third in group B, after losing 1-0 to Saudi Arabia.

The Australians, having won the match against the Vasco Arruabarrena team, will face for the fourth time against a representative of Conmebol for a place in a world cup, with a balance of two defeats and one victory. On the first occasion they faced Argentina for the 1994 United States World Cup. In the first leg, in Sydney it was a 1-1 draw, while in Buenos Aires, the locals won 1-0 with both Gabriel Omar Batistuta.
While in the 2002 repechage for Korea - Japan, they were left on the road at the hands of Uruguay. Australia defeated 1-0 in Melbourne with a goal from Kevin Muscat, but the Uruguayans won a resounding 3-0 at the Centenario Stadium in Montevideo, leaving the oceanists again out of the World Cup. Australia thus lost a playoff for the third time in a row.
But the rematch against celeste came four years later for the 2006 World Cup Germany. On that occasion, after losing 1-0 in the Centennial and winning by the same home result, and after a penalty shootout where the Socceroos won the 4-2 victory, they ended 32 years of absence from a world championship.
This Tuesday will be announced the South American team that will play the repechage against the winner of the series among the teams of the Asian confederation. The three options are Peru, Colombia and Chile, the only ones that depend on themselves to win the quota, it is the team led by Ricardo Gareca that with a victory in their match against Paraguay, will be in Qatar on June 14 playing the World Cup Repechage.
On the other hand, Reinaldo Rueda's team has two options to play the repechage. The first scenario that the classification gives him is a victory against Venezuela and that the Peruvians do not add up to three in their game in Lima. The other path that will take him to Qatar is a draw in Puerto Ordaz, a defeat for Peru and that Chile does not beat Uruguay. While for Chileans, the only option to play the intercontinental match, is to win in Santiago and expect defeats from Peru and Colombia.
