Socceroos vs Mexico/Switzerland - Pre-World Cup Friendlies 2026 🇦🇺🇲🇽🇨🇭

What woeful sitting back by Switzerland there. That right back was in Arizona!
 
Now that was a top long ball by Burgess and well finished by Yengi after good work by Metcalfe
 
But what's changed? We're much more spread out now as are the Swiss. They're also a bit on the sleepy side. Have we actually upped our intensity and movement off the ball? Only somewhat I'd say.

It seems we identify our opponents return slowly and thats our time to lift ourselves.
 
I'd say that's a rare goal though as the Swiss defender was unprofessionally deep. I'll have to see the replay later but that Metcalfe run and the Burgess ball were excellent.

That’s traditionally an Australian thing though, isn’t it?

I think O'Neill is serviceable but definitely noticeable that we have upped our intensity since he went off. Metcalfe has given us a bit of energy too. Good to see because I have doubts about him but Irankunda and Toure have both spoken very glowingly about him.
