Ammon News - Jordan will meet South Korea, Iraq, Oman, Palestine and Kuwait in Group B while Iran take on Qatar, Uzbekistan, the United Arab Emirates, Kyrgyzstan and North Korea in Group A.

Four-times Asian champions Japan will face familiar foes in the third round of Asia's 2026 World Cup qualifiers after Hajime Moriyasu's side were drawn to take on Australia, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, China and Indonesia in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.

Japan, who have qualified for the last seven World Cup tournaments, played both Saudi Arabia and Australia in the final phase of qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup.

Moriyasu's team qualified automatically for the most recent tournament from the group alongside Saudi Arabia while Australia eventually qualified via an intercontinental playoff.

The draw has left the Chinese facing a daunting challenge to secure a place at their first World Cup since making their debut, and so far only appearance in 2002.
