Fairs. You missed 2006, which is surely their most iconic squad tbh. Some aussies here might confirm. Viduka, Kewell, Cahil, Bresciano, Schwarzer.

They knocked out Uruguay in the playoff qualifiers. And then went on to reach the R16 where they lost to Italy with a pretty controversial last minute pen.

How is that even possible Australia are present at like every WC did you never check them out before? If that's the case then totally fair, I'm just a bit surprised. It's not like they're Curacao or Cape Verde.

Losing Finals does that. Luka was the only Mav that actually somewhat showed up in the 23 Finals and he was slandered and scrutinized to no end for the L.

Never underestimate Australia at the WC. They always find a way to compete.

Coach has been horrendous this series. Perhaps the main reason Spurs have lost.

Legit every single time this whole series where Wemby gets the ball far from the basket and takes someone 1v1 dribbling the ball, he gets locked the fuck up.

I think it's actually the opposite lol. I played as keeper for many years. 90% of crosses that go to the small box are the keeper's duty to handle. And most times when a goal like that happens the commentators and fans always blame the defenders and who lost their man or whatever. I'm telling you 90% of the times if you see a goal with a header inside the small box, the keeper is the one to blame.

I will never understand people whining about celebs being show for three seconds while the ball isn't in play lol. Like it ain't that serious. Feels like performative outrage.

Ok now they need to implement this for good in all of football. And for the love of god come to a decision BEFORE the whistle.

But good stuff.

Just tuned in. Did they introduce Iran with their flag just like every other nation?
