Those goals are from the qualifiers with Mitch Duke scoring and of course Aziz Behich's winner against Japan.

Swiss luck!

 

[NicCarBel]

ouch. But also good

Socceroos drawn group D with the USA and will play them matchday 2.

 

[JS96]

Yesss! I'll take USA. Definitely can learn from the friendly and they'll have motivation but pressure. Got to say though a lame pot 1 opponent compared to the Giants.

So this skews a lot already. Can't get CONCACAF elsewhere.

Means we must hope for Scotland/Norway in the next pot, or luck out with UEFA C/D in pot 4 if that doesn’t eventuate

 

[verrelli]

Do we play the team in D4 first, then USA, then D2?

 

[erogenouszone]

Usa !

 

[JS96]

Fark look at the remaining 4 though. Massive teams.

Genius at work! The computer will show a lot of impossible paths next. Expect a lot of skipping.

Based on the pairings our opening game will be against D4, then matchday 2 against the USA and our last game is against D2 but we have to wait and see how the schedule release pans out first.

 

[JS96]

Fucking hell. Portugal Colombia.

 

[NicCarBel]

First match for Socceroos to be in Vancouver on Sat 13 June

Match 2 against USA in Seattle on Fri 19 June.

Match 3 in San Francisco on Thurs 25 Jun

England v Croatia

 

[verrelli]

Happy to avoid a pot 1 big gun. Fingers crossed we get lucky in pot 4 and that would be ideal. I would love all teams we haven't played before.

England v Croatia

Should be an enthralling contest to have a repeat of the 2018 World Cup semi-final for England's opening game at this World Cup.
