Thais lose to Oman, likely out of World Cup

 

Oman struck after just 26 seconds to condemn Thailand to their second successive defeat and all but rule out their chance of reaching their first World Cup.

Immediately after the 1-0 loss, Thailand manager Kittiratt na Ranong resigned.

Seconds after the kick off, Ismail Al Ajmi broke free in the area to convert a right-wing cross to defeat a resilient Thai side who failed to find the net in more than a dozen clear-cut chances.

 

"This has been a big boost to our chances of World Cup qualification," Oman's Uruguayan coach Julio Cesar Ribas told reporters."

 

The visitors soaked up 89 minutes of constant pressure from the Thais, with goalkeeper Ali Al Habsi fending off a barrage of attacks from strikers Teerathep Winothai and Teerasin Dangda.

"It was a very difficult game, we were under pressure all the time, but we did just enough to win," Al Habsi said.

Bahrain and Japan booked their places in the final round of qualifying for the 2010 World Cup on Saturday.

 

Japan went through with a 3-0 win over struggling Thailand in Bangkok, while Bahrain gained a bruising 1-1 draw with regional rivals Oman.

 

Bahrain remain at the top of Group Two with 11 points, one ahead of Japan, who also qualified following their 3-0 victory over Thailand earlier in the day.
