That's all from the Al Janoub Stadium as South Korea narrowly beat Australia and head to the last four. I've been Craig Resnik-Hanson for Tribe. We hope you've enjoyed our commentary of this AFC Asian Cup game. The Socceroos will head back to their respective clubs. For them, the tournament is over. South Korea, on the other hand, look forward to a midweek semi-final against underdog sensations Jordan. Until next time, thanks for using Tribe and goodbye.
Well, it's all over in Qatar. What an enthralling game of football between two of the favourites to win this competition. Only one could advance to face Jordan in the semi-finals and it's South Korea. Truth be told, they had the majority of the ball and were on the front foot throughout. Australia defended bravely, and despite going down to 10 men, managed to stay within a goal all the way to the end of the 120 minutes. In the end, South Korea had a little too much energy and guile for the Socceroos and are deserved semi-finalists.
120+2'
South Korea come free with the ball through Oh Hyeun-gyu down the right flank. He's got Lee Jung Seung-hyun through the middle wide-open. He tries to lift it over the defence into his run but it's cut out and cleared. It doesn't matter. It's over and South Korea have done it!
120+1'
Klinsmann makes his final change as Lee Kang-in makes way for Jung Seung-hyun in the front three for South Korea.

120'
ANOTHER RYAN DOUBLE SAVE! Mat Ryan has really kept this scoreline down when all is said and done. Oh Hyeon-gyu picks it up inside the box on the left and smashes it hard and low on his left foot. It's straight at Ryan but it's hit so powerfully that he is only able to parry it into the run of Lee Kang-in a few yards from the right post. He hits it first time towards goal on his right and Ryan miraculously somehow gets back into position to save on the line with his feet. Australia desperately scramble it clear.
119'
Fornaroli tracks back brilliantly to rob the ball back from Son down the right flank of his own half and then drive back towards the halfway mark. He hits it long looking for Souttar, but Korea head it clear and pick up the second ball.
118'
Jordan Bos is fouled down the right side of his own half by the Korean winger breaking out from his own half. Mat Ryan is able to smash it long towards the edge of the Korea box again. It's headed away out to the right and Korea come away with the ball.
