Socceroos vs Paraguay 2026 World Cup match thread 🇦🇺🇵🇾

Oh come off it! Irankunda has a cousin called Bosco

I don’t agree with Irankunda getting an 8.5

He was probably a 5

We saw why he’s only where he is at the current moment.

He has flashes of brilliance but last night was terrible. Not only was his passing and feet bad but he was lazy at getting into Position.

Hopefully it’s out of his system.

He's not a central striker. I guess you could say he drew the Paraguay defence back but he needs space to use his acceleration.

The silly dive to try and win a penalty was naive. The whipped shot across goal could've been slowed for an easy pass to O'Neill who was wide open.

We lack a quality 10 and we have no line breakers in the middle of the park. Its just bang average.

Our best stuff came through Volpato and Bos. Which is not surprising considering they are only 2 players that can actually beat an opponent one on one.

I thought we would also be better at set pieces. This should be a strength but the crossing has been diabolical.

Eventually we should revert to a back 4 and get Robertson in. McGree will return. Move on from Irvine.

The list of strikers coming through need to be actually called up to the squad and played.

Herrington is just so cool.
