Aussie's defense is pretty crazy

I dunno. It feels like a highly unbalanced game stylistically. We like to force turnovers up high and they like to sit and wait. Feels like it could go either way.

Maybe there’s a reason Turkey had to qualify via the playoffs

Aussie ain’t shite. We will beat them. Turkeys coach just went full dumbass and got too cute. They deserve this.

This is good for the national economy. Australian Fans will spend more money than the Turks in the knockout round.

Helps when you can fully park the bus 20 minutes into the match

Amen. If we can't win this group, we'd never advance far in the Knockout Round anyways.

We got a favorable DRAW and need to get some more W's.

Does anyone else think of "From Russia With Love" watching Turkey?

The Aussie keeper is having a great game. That’s the difference.

He is, but outside of that one fingertip save he hasn't had to do much other than stop shots put on straight at him. His defense has made his job quite easy tonight.

Best case scenario is a garbage time Turkey goal.

Friday is gonna be a banger

The whole narrative out of australian sports media has been how disrespected they've been by Americans not giving them a chance


I hope we shove it down their throats

I think both these teams will run it up against Paraguay.

Paraguay will get at least a point off of one of these teams.

I'd be shocked if Paraguay v. Australia doesn't end in a draw.
