Recently, the return match of the World Cup qualification between the national teams of Australia and Honduras representing different confederations ended. In the first leg, there were no goals scored, so the battle continued. The duel was evenly matched from the very first minutes, and the score remained 0-0 at halftime. However, in the second half, the fans could finally rejoice with goals. In the 54th minute, the Australian team opened the scoring with a penalty kick by defender Mile Jedinak. The ball ended up in the net after a ricochet from Henry Figueroa, so the goal was credited to the latter. Nevertheless, Jedinak himself was not disappointed, as he later managed to score two more times, when his team earned two penalty kicks. Alberth Elis managed to reduce the deficit for Honduras towards the end, but the Australian national team won the match 3-1 and secured a spot in the upcoming World Cup this summer. Result (aggregate score): Australia 3 - 1 (3 - 1) Honduras [1-0] 54' Henry Figueroa (own goal) [2-0] 72' Mile Jedinak (from penalty) [3-0] 85' Mile Jedinak (from penalty) [3-1] 90' Alberth Elis
