(AP)Bahrain's 10-0 victory over a weakened Indonesia team in a World Cup qualifying match will be studied in a "routine" investigation, FIFA said Thursday.
Bahrain's win raised suspicions because it needed to make up a nine-goal deficit on rival Qatar in the group standings to have a chance of advancing to the next round.
It also needed Qatar to lose its last match Wednesday, but the Qataris scored an 83rd-minute equalizer to get a 2-2 draw in Iran and advanced to the next stage of the Asian qualifying tournament ahead of Bahrain.
"FIFA security will conduct a routine examination of this game and its result," football's world governing body said in a statement.
