Cristian Volpato!

More of that, even if it was at the keeper

 

[HonestSpursFan]

As it stands we’re through. It’s not over yet though.

 

[riquelmes_laces]

Was Behich trying to score from there?

Cristian Volpato!

Cristian Volpato with a shot at goal which is saved.

I need to see that again but that looked like the perfect height to flick it on and Irvin's man-bun butchered it

As it stands we’re through. It’s not over yet though.

The United States have already confirmed their round of 32 matchup against Bosnia and Herzegovina, and as it stands the Socceroos will be facing second place from the All Whites' group.

See Popa ?!
Give the boys some freedom to attack and select better look what is going on the pitch !

Lots of possession but not much end product against a well organised defence.

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Socceroos and Paraguay scoreless going into the half.

Lots of possession but not much end product against a well organised defence.

yep - just need that finish - more get into the box.
Cross's not hitting us.
Ira not finding space/losing his marker/s of his own last third.
Overall good start !

 

[JS96]

Satisfied with that. Paraguay happy to stand back. A goal would put us a lot more at ease but also wake Paraguay up.

 

[DandyCasey]

Think we need a goal. Paraguay luring us into a false sense of shitness

Half time: Paraguay 0–0 Australia, Turkey 2–1 USA.

So far the Socceroos will be finishing second in Group D, advancing to the round of 32!!! However, we’ve still got the second half to play.

The USA have already advanced while Turkey have been eliminated due to their head-to-head records.

Man our best chance was when herrington picked out that ball right through their press and we had numbers forward and they were out of position. UGH why were we so slow there.

But good footie boys. Keep it up. Keep the compusure. We will get more chances just gotta finish them.

I doubt we’ll get the All Whites. Surely Belgium won’t lose.

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

The USA have already advanced while Turkey have been eliminated due to their head-to-head records.

Turkey guaranteed to win the spoon in group D regardless of how their match pans out and are only playing for pride today.

 

[JS96]

Still a bit tense. I guess Paraguay will be fine on 4 points but very tight if teams keep winning. I expect they'll want to strike with a goal at some point

 

[grazorblade]

Some good signs, set pieces and counter attacks need to be better. Good to see us create a couple of half chamces against a tough defense

 

[Encomium]

Times flying by, great to watch and we've largely been in control, just need a bit better end product or Irvine on the edge of the box instead of the middle of it, but looking much more likely to score.
