Australia beats Denmark to qualify for World Cup knockout stages

Doha, SANA- Australia beat Denmark 1-0 during its group stage match Wednesday, proceeding into the playoff round of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

A single goal from Mathew Leckie was enough for Australia to shock the not-so-great Danes in their Group D clash on Wednesday, ensuring that the Socceroos move to the knockout stages of a FIFA World Cup for the first time in 16 years.

The crucial goal came on the hour when Melbourne City winger Mathew Leckie put the finishing touches on a swift Australian counter-attack to slide the ball past a helpless Kasper Schmeichel to give his side what would prove to be an unassailable advantage.
