Australia were reduced to nine men by red cards as they crashed out of the FIFA Under-17 World Cup with a 4-0 loss to Uzbekistan in the round of 16 in Mexico yesterday, Australian time.
Goals in the 11th, 40th, 66th and 89th minutes put an emphatic end to the Joeys' campaign after they progressed to the knockout clash by finishing third in group F. Despite controlling possession in the first half, Australia were unable to create scoring chances, while Uzbekistan struck early through its captain, Abbosbek Makhstaliev.
Uzbekistan now face either Congo or Uruguay in the quarter-final on Sunday.
