From 46 teams at the start of the First Round, we are down to the final 18 as we enter the Third Round of Asian Qualifiers on the road to the FIFA World Cup 2026.

After last week's draw, we're joined by Bassil Mikdadi from Football Palestine to answer your questions: who got the toughest/easiest draw? What can Palestine achieve? Can Indonesia fly the flag for SE Asia?

PLUS... we hear directly from Australia's Graham Arnold and China's Branko Ivankovic to get their immediate reaction to the draw.
