Australia and South Korea secured their spots in the Asian Cup quarterfinals yesterday, with attention quickly turning to which of the continental favourites will top the group.

Australia’s 4-0 demolition of Oman in Sydney ensured both the Socceroos and South Korea advanced — both teams have six points from two games. They’ll meet in Brisbane on Saturday to determine rankings in Group A.

Australia is already well ahead on goal difference with eight already. South Korea has won both its games 1-0, beating Oman at the weekend and Kuwait in Canberra yesterday, albeit with a much weakened line-up.
