This pairing was the same as the pairing for the 2002 OFC-CONMEBOL playoff, which Uruguay won 3-1 on aggregate. The draw for determining the order of the home and away legs was made at a FIFA congress on September 10, 2005.

The tie was drawn 1-1 on aggregate after 180 minutes and also after extra time. With both teams failing to score an away goal the playoff was decided by a penalty shootout, with Australia shooting first.

The winner, Australia, was awarded a place in the 2006 World Cup.
