Cameron Sutton Jersey .Second-half goals from
Massimo Luongo and Tomi Juric ensured the right result for Ange Postecoglous
side on Thursday night, even if they were made to work hard for it.A first half
of frustration gave way just before the hour mark, when Luongo arrived on the
spot to thrash home Jurics squared ball from close range.The former Western
Sydney Wanderers striker made sure of the result on 65 minutes, when Mark
Milligan successfully drew attention from Aaron Mooys corner, allowing Juric to
tap home from a metre.The result pleased Postecoglou, who spoke of the
importance of winning home games during this decisive qualifying group stage.I
was pleased with both performance and result, he said.Were off to a really good
start and should have had a goal inside 20 seconds.We knew wed eventually work
them down.Sterner tests await, including the United Arab Emirates, who beat
Japan 2-1 in Tokyo on Thursday, next week in the scorching Abu Dhabi heat.But
with a shot count of 20-6 and 72 per cent of possession, the Socceroos were
content to avoid a potential banana peel in the first of 10 qualifiers for the
2018 showpiece in Russia.The home side were twice denied by the woodwork before
Luongo broke the deadlock, and allowed simple errors to creep into their play.On
26 minutes, Mathew Leckies long-range header reduced goalkeeper Mohammed Hameed
to a bystander, only to bounce off the inside of the post and away to
safety.Skipper Mile Jedinak, who was uncharacteristically astray in his passing,
then headed Mooys cross just over.At halftime, it felt like the Socceroos had
control of the play, but not the contest.But an improved intensity after the
break soon had the Iraqis swamped.A fine move between Jedinak and Leckie saw
Mooy smash an effort onto the bar.Australia had their swagger back, and a
breakthrough seemed inevitable.When it did come on 58 minutes, Juric was the
most grateful man at nib Stadium.The beanpole striker contrived to botch the
simplest of tap-ins but, a minute later, he redeemed himself by crossing for
Luongo who didnt make the same mistake.Australia didnt let up, and it was Juric
who made the game safe a from Mooy set-piece.On his competitive debut, Milos
Degenek impressed at right-back, while substitute Robbie Kruse fizzed with
energy.

Saturday for the first four games of the season for violating the NFL policy on
performance enhancing substances. Holmes will be eligible to return to the
Raiders active roster Sept. 30, the day after they host Washington in the fourth
game of the season. He will be allowed to participate in all preseason practices
and games. Holmes said in a statement that he was surprised when he found out
that he tested positive for a banned amphetamine during an off-season test in
April. "I know that I had been quite ill when I was tested in early April, as I
reported to the sample collector at the time my sample was given, so I thought
one of the medications I was taking was responsible," he said. "However, to this
day, even after furrther testing, I do not know how the substance got into my
system.

back. I sincerely apologize to my teammates, coaches and Raiders fans for this
situation." Holmes was claimed off waivers from New England in May. He played
seven games for Dallas last season, catching two passes for 11 yards. Coach
Dennis Allen said the team knew a suspension was a possibility but said it was a
league matter and he would have no additional comment.
