Australia 2-1 South Korea: Australia kings of Asia

Australia triumphed over South Korea in the Asian Cup final yesterday to cap a remarkable period for a nation which is only just awakening to the possibilities that membership of the Asia set-up provides - on and off the field. Watched by a 76,385-strong crowd, Australia's 2-1 defeat of two-time champions South Korea in extra time at Sydney's Olympic stadium was the country's first Asian Cup title since moving to the Asian zone from Oceania in 2006.
