Australia's national football team defeated Thailand 4-0 Monday night to stay alive in the Asian Cup. Striker Mark Viduka scored twice in three minutes to give the Socceroos their much-needed win after they absorbed waves of Thai attacks. The score did not reflect the immense pressure the Socceroos had to endure in a tense second half before Viduka gave his team a lifeline into the quarter-finals.  Australia now faces Asian powerhouse Japan in Hanoi on Saturday night.
