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

[highkick05]

They aren't looking that confident

 

[Bbouy]

Lets fucking gooooo!

These cunts would jam ads into a head of state's funeral.

 

[erogenouszone]

Are those var people posing for a centrefold ?

 

[Guy Incognito]

You’d think we’d have learnt in 1915 not to use a Beach against Turks.

 

[Richie]

Makes sense. Lets hope it does not backfire then as with youth comes inexperience and the tournament is on the biggest world stage.

The boys look serious which is a good thing

 

[erogenouszone]

Seriously, is Ryan injured or is this some sort of Kalac over Schearzer style move ?

 

[Alex M]

Easiest group is a bit of a distraction implying we should make it out. It is technically true because we don't have a heavyweight for the first time but there isn't an opponent in this group we are favoured against, as per usual. Getting out of the group would still be a surprise, even if it is slightly easier to finish top 2.

Getting out of the group is always a surprise for us

Socceroos and Turkey now underway on opening day of their World Cup campaign, with the Socceroos kicking from left to right and Turkey kicking from right to left.

Go the Socceroos.

 

[Richie]

Silly me that was their training strip. Too stylish, should wear it other than that lite green, yellow, black strip both the Roos and Tillies have been wearing of late.

 

[HonestSpursFan]

GAME ON!!!! UP THE ROOS!!!!!!!!

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Socceroos doing well to shut Turkey down early on but have now conceded a corner.

 

[Richie]

Turkey

Turkiye. New spelling and pronunciation. I like it.

C'mon the Roos, smash em.

I still prefer the current Matildas home and away strips to the Socceroos' World Cup kits though.

 

[erogenouszone]

Well the game so far looks familiar. See you all in the 2nd Half.

 

[kamaryn]

Yeah the adrenaline has taken over.

Which is Nestory and which is Mo?

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Which is Nestory and which is Mo?

Mo Toure is the taller out of the two and is also wearing the number 9 jersey.

 

[Richie]

Mo Toure is the taller out of the two and is also wearing the number 9 jersey.

Arent strikers supposed to be tall to get above others when heading. Nestory looks like a gnome from looking at the screen.
