Oman plays Kuwait, both out contention, will play in Newcastle.Oman had proved to be a troublesome opponent for Australia since their first meeting at the Asian Cup in 2007 — where only an injury-time equalizer by Tim Cahill salvaged a point for the Socceroos. The Oman lineup started brightly again, with Raed Salehs fierce volley from 25 yards acrobatically saved by Mat Ryan after three minutes.Australia made the first breakthrough, though, when Massimo Luongos corner kick was headed toward goal by defender Trent Sainsbury, and Matt McKay bundled the ball past goalkeeper Ali Al Habsi in the 27th minute.Winger Robbie Kruse added another three minutes later after he took a Luongo chipped pass in his stride and slid a shot under the advancing Al Habsi.Oman was lucky not to be reduced to 10 men after midfielder Ahmed Mubarak lunged at Australia stand-in captain Tim Cahill, with Japanese referee Ryuji Sato opting to only issue a yellow card.Australia made it 3-0 in first-half injury time when Kruse crossed to the far post for Milligan to volley powerfully home, only for referee Sato to disallow the goal and instead give Australia a penalty for a foul on Cahill during the same play.Milligan scored from the resulting penalty to the delight of the 50,276-strong crowd — the highest attendance of the tournament.Australia coach Ange Postecoglou withdrew Cahill and Luongo in the 51st minute, keeping his promise to rotate players during the tournament and bringing in striker Juric and veteran Mark Bresciano.Australia played at a slower tempo after the substitutions, but Juric added a fourth in the 70th after receiving Leckies curling cross and volleying his shot past Al Habsi.Juric had two more good chances, but hit the post and had another shot brilliantly saved by Al Habsi from a header.Postecoglou made three changes to the team that opened the Asian Cup, with Mark Milligan replacing injured captain Mile Jedinak.West Bromwich Albion defender Jason Davidson came in for Aziz Behich at left back, while McKay also got his first start of the tournament for attacking midfielder James Troisi .

JOHNS, N.L. -- Jason Jaffray scored 52 seconds into the game, and Eddie Pasquale made 36 saves to lead the St. Johns IceCaps over the Manchester Monarchs 4-1 in American Hockey League action on Friday. "We got off to a good start and scored that early goal," IceCaps forward Adam Lowry said. "Then we got back on our heels a bit in the third period. We did a good job keeping their shots to the outside in the third." Despite being outshot 18-7 in the third period, partially due to having to kill three penalties, Pasquale kept the IceCaps in the game. Head coach Keith McCambridge was happy with the teams penalty kill. "In the third period especially, our penalty kill was tested," McCambridge said. "The foundation for all penalty kills is making sure your goaltender is the best guy (out there). I thought Eddie (Pasquale) made some huge saves for us to be able to keep momentum." One player who is making the most of his penalty kill opportunities, according to McCambridge, is Adam Lowry. "Hes really good and hes been good all season," he said. "He possesses long range and takes up a lot of ice, and he is able to read well on the forecheck. Lowry is a player that has a lot of intelligence on where to be on the ice and hes been key for us.dddddddddddd" Lowry is happy to have an expanded role with the IceCaps, which allows him to be killing penalties and learning from veterans. "Its good any time your role is increased with the team, you want to make the most of it," Lowry said. "(Patrice) Cormier and Jaffray have helped me out a lot on the penalty kill and knowing where to be."
