Australia trounce Qatar, China squeezes out a Spring Festival draw

The first round of World Cup qualifiers for the Asian division was held on the eve of Chinese New Year on February 6.  Australia hosted Qatar in Melbourne and gave them a thorough thrashing, with tall Josh Kennedy and Tim Cahill the stars.  China, on the other hand, managed to squeeze out a draw against Iraq in Dubai.  China was greatly aided when one of the Iraqi players was sent off in the second half, helping Zheng Zhi head home a goal.  Australia and China will play each other in Kunming on March 26, a venue that may have been chosen because of its high altitude.
