Australia concede from another pullback, but france blaze over. Need to get better at defending those
both of France's clear chances very similar
 
big chance for France there off an aerial cross but the shot is wide
 
standouts so far are probably overy and herrington

we have struggled to win the ball high up the pitch. France has found it pretty easy to work through our lines
 
France 2-0 up. The french winger cuts inside and shoots from the edge of the u18 box
 
Australia now 3-0 after France convert a from a scramble in the box
 
pull back towards marcus neill but his shot is poor
 
some fighting happening but the replay not showing who started it
 
France's defensive shape and press was significantly better than Australia's. They really strangled our attack at times.
 
no clear cut chances for either side yet, Oz have more possession and territory
 
frontline is dukuly, grimaldi, reec

I recognize puall, pantazopolis and adamson. Think that is beach in goals
 
In a crowded pen area after a corner we concede the first clear cut chance from a pull back. What is it with youth coaches for Australia being poor at defending pull backs?
 
We concede a 2nd clear cut chance after a defender leaves an aerial cross missing a dangerous run to the back post
 
Australia create their first clear cut chance but Alagich shoots wide
 
Thanks for the person letting me know this was on - U23s Aus v South K.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching a friendly, with little resting on the result.

Very impressed with Valadon and Bozinovski in midfield. Terrific technique and handling speed in tight spaces.

Good ball winning from CB Paull and Midfielder Alagich.

Not sure if it was pretty hot, but both teams enjoyed sustained periods of possession.

Not sure why strikers Archie Goodwin and Jovanovic weren't there?

Goodwin had a hamstring tear close to the end of April. Probably just back to training
