Australia talk up chances of beating UAE at Asian Cup


SYDNEY (Reuters) - The United Arab Emirates did Australia a great favour when they upset Japan in the quarter-finals of the Asian Cup but are not expecting charity in return.

Not only did UAE book themselves a place in the last four with their stunning win, they also spared the host-nation a rematch against the country that beat them in the last Asian Cup final and the 2007 quarter-finals.
