New Zealand’s only chance, slim as it might be, of making it through to next Sunday’s play-off at the Olympic tournament depends on results of other games as much as its own. Should New Zealand beat both South Korea (tomorrow night) and Bahrain (on Tuesday) it would take four
points. A draw on Tuesday between South Korea and Saudi Arabia would leave those two sides on four points (provided Kuwait beats Saudi Arabia in the early game tomorrow night). Goal difference would then be needed to find the qualifier (behind Kuwait).
Four teams, Thailand, Qatar, Iraq and Malaysia, all have two points in Group B, but Qatar and Iraq have played only one game. Thailand will play Qatar and Japan will meet Iraq in tonight’s games.
The points in Group WDL A are.— F A Pt Kuwait 2 1 0 4 0 5 Saudi Arabia 1 1 0 4 2 3 South Korea 1 1 0 1 0 3 Bahrain 0 1 2 1 4 1 New Zealand 0 0 2 1 5 0
