Socceroos vs Turkey 2026 World Cup match thread 🇦🇺🇹🇷

[socceroosmad]

I didn't realise Turkey had only qualified twice for the world cup. They'll be pumped to make it.

And yet they made the semi-finals in 2002 in Korea/Japan

How's the Australian Turkish community going to go with this?

All Turkish games are not on German FTA rather exclusively on Telekom (26 games exclusively) yet they all said they'll be watching Turkish channels anyway.

Apparently YouTube will be showing games too which should dent Telekoms pay TV package.

SBS still works with vpn while NOS from the Netherlands has clamped down. There'll be plenty of sources.

Testing my memory there but I reckon he was on the scene around that time.

Güler double against Bayern. Can't wait for O'Neill to be metres off behind him.

He’s basically helped form my opinion that Turkey will top the group.

I mean one of the goals was wide open after a Neuer mistake and the other was a free-kick. At least, we aren't facing Olise.

I may have an extra ticket for Australia v Turkey in Vancouver on the 13th of June. If you’re interested or know anyone interested, please message me directly. Thanks

Sounds like Güler may miss the first game even if he makes the squad after an injury 2 or 3 days ago.

Turkey with a home send off against North Macedonia then they'll face Venezuela in Fort Lauderdale.

Here's hoping the spirit of Alexander the Great lives on and the Macedonians can soften up the Turks for us.

Aussies will be able to utilise the spirit of Abraham Lincoln against them , dont be afraid.

I enjoyed that World Cup (it was in our time zone), but I believe that no World Cup suffered more from players having been overtaxed in the lead up and not performing to the level we hoped for (France, Argentina, Italy).

Some players even ended up erased from history.
