The win keeps Australia comfortably on top of Group B with three victories in as many matches ahead of November's clash with Jordan in Amman.

Taggart opened the scoring after 12 minutes with a diving header from a Rhyan Grant cross for his first international goal in six years.Two more of those given a start - Awer Mabil and Brad Smith - then combined well on the left with a slick one-two before Taggart tapped home a Smith cross in the 19th-minute.

It was the first goal conceded in the qualifying campaign by the Australian goalkeeper who was captaining his nation for the first time in his 58th appearance.
