In the 23rd minute, Australia was awarded a penalty after Toure’s kick hit Komang Teguh’s hand in the forbidden box. The referee made the decision after watching the replay via video assistant referee (VAR).
Interestingly, Toure’s penalty kick was saved by Ernando Ari. In the remaining time of the match, the Garuda Muda squad tried to get out of the pressure.
