Australia vs Jordan, big AFC World Cup qualifying match on Tuesday; Socceroos looking for first win in 2013 as automatic qualification for Brazil 2014 is at stake

Australia host Jordan in a AFC World Cup qualifier on Tuesday, June 11, 2013.Miami Beach, Florida (June 9, 2013) – In Australia this Tuesday, avid football fans will have their eyes locked on one thing: the 2014 AFC World Cup qualifying fixture between the Socceroos of Australia and the Chivalrous of Jordan. Live broadcast of Australia vs Jordan will be available from 9:00am GMT / 11:00am CET on SBS One Australia and Fox Sports 1 Australia. In the United Kingdom, the match will air live on British EuroSport 2 at 10:00am BST whereas One World Sports will carry Australia vs Jordan live at 5:00am EST in the United States.

It is a crucial World Cup qualifier for both teams and LiveSoccerTV.com can confirm that coverage in Asia will be huge through channels like Star Sports China, Star Sports India and Star Sports Malaysia. With Al Jazeera Sports HD1 and Al Jazeera Sports +1, over 15 Arabic countries appear in our live stream and TV schedules listings for the Australia vs Jordan World Cup qualifier on Tuesday, June 11, 2013.

 

Australia have won only one of their six AFC World Cup qualifying matches. With four draws and one defeat, Holger Osieck’s men must find a way past Jordan. The Socceroos enter Tuesday’s 2014 World Cup qualifier with much hope mathematically. 

Following Japan’s qualification for Brazil 2014, there is only one automatic spot left in Group B. As of now, it is occupied by Oman. Australia seat two points behind in third place. Jordan are fourth due to their negative goal difference. 

Things are getting tricky in the group and as much as the Socceroos want to avoid the play-offs, they are under pressure to make the most of the home advantage against Jordan. Maximum points would push the Australians in second place with 10 points – one above Oman. They will have their fate in their own hands ahead of their final group game against Iraq.

Meanwhile, Jordan realistically continue to dream about the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. If they avoid defeat against Australia, they could as well upset Oman on June 18 and make history by reaching the World Cup finals for the first time ever.
