Australia have moved a step closer to securing their spot in the final round of World Cup qualification after a 2-0 win over Lebanon, which was soured by injuries to Riley McGree and Jordy Bos.
Coach Graham Arnold said McGree and Bos were unlikely to play in Tuesday's qualifier against the Lebanese in Canberra after both failed to finish the first half in front of 27,026 fans at CommBank Stadium in Sydney on Thursday.
