It’s winner-takes all for Australia and Uzbekistan at the AFC U-23 Championship as the two nations battle it out in the third-place playoff on Saturday night.
The winner of the match at the Rajamangala Stadium will not only finish with a bronze medal but also secure their spot at this year’s Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
Having been narrowly beaten by Korea Republic on Thursday morning (AEDT), the green and gold will need to bounce back quickly if they are to punch their ticket to Japan later this year.
With everything on the line it promises to be a thrilling and tense battle in Bangkok.
And you can see it all unfold live on Saturday, January 25 at 11.30pm on FOX Sports, Kayo and the My Football YouTube channel.
