The handball was a card and the 3 on 2 breakaway foul was cynical as gently caress, shoulda been a sendoff.

It was still at least a yellow for a deliberate handball and he got nothing for it, while Risdon got a yellow for Griezmann pulling a Vardy

France looked really unconvincing but they won in open play. Fair shout to them (except the yellow card that French guy got for the trip should have been a red) Other times the aussies have a respectable loss they suck in the remainder games. Hopefully they get a win somwhere else.

Well, considering how much they peppered our goal and how nonexistent our attack is, losing by 1 is a decent result.fridge corn posted:someone explain why cahill wasnt subbed on for the last sub I guess it's because you only get 3 subs and old man Cahill probably can't run long enough to warrant a sub anymore?  Still I think he would've had more impact than Irvine.

Waking up this morning and it's really disappointing we couldn't take away a point. Thankfully the Denmark-Peru game was only 1-0 which is good for us from a goal difference point of view.

I mean 2-1 against the team that was expected to walk all over us? That's decent. I still think we won't make it out of the group alive, but still decent.

We kind of have to beat Denmark, and assume France wins all their matches. Also, SBS is now airing all games for the next two nights because Optus was being poo poo.

I thought our defence was better than our attack, but the French attack wasn't that hot either. Should have been a draw IMHO.

NTRabbit posted:We can still get through by drawing with Denmark and beating Peru, because it's an easy goal difference to turn over provided France get their business done properly True, but it relies on GD going our way. Though that should easier I guess considering if we draw with Denmark and beat Peru, and France beats Denmark, then at worst, we'd both be at 0 GD. Then it would come down to goals scored, so we'd be pretty much safe so long as Denmark doesn't get a high scoring loss while we get a 1-0 win. If it went on to fair play for tie breaking, we'd probably lose out.

Yeah that's what I meant, Denmark only winning 1-0 and us only losing 2-1 put the goal difference in a lot easier reach than if both margins had been 2-0, should we only draw with Denmark. I mean, ideally we want to beat them so we only need to draw with Peru rather than win or die, but still.

Yeah, I remember failing to qualify against Uruguay, going for the Irish (lol) and probably Germany too. And I also was in high school, and there was literally no one else playing football at lunch at all for the prior 3 years, and then everyone playing after the world cup.

But my clearest early World Cup memories were 86. The hilarious way that England went out set the tone for world cups for ever. Overshadowed though by Zico and Socrates missing penalties in the semi final.

At least I backed it up with a link  quote:gently caress I'm so hype for this just like old times. Are any of y'all old enough to remember Korea/Japan? That poo poo made me a football fan for life with it being in our time zone. That was a good one, it was mad. The first WC I paid serious attention to was 1998, and everyone was surprised and shocked by France who just seemed invincible that year. I think it was 2010 when they put up a screen at Birraung Marr, a park in central Melbourne, and I went down with a friend and froze our butts off with a large crowd of fellow aussies.

My earliest world cup memory is Roberto Baggio's penalty in the 1994 final. But involving Australia - it'd be the 1998 qualifier against Iran, when that dreadlocked feral ran on the pitch and ripped the net. It took 20 minutes to get fixed, and we completely switched off during that time. And yes, 2002 completely owned because the games were all afternoon and evenings. I remember watching England vs Argentina on a Friday evening after work in a pub completely packed to the rafters, like it was grand final day. It owned.

So when exactly does SBS make the games available "On Demand"? They seem to be putting them up later and later, and TUNENG isn't even up yet, and the replay is wholly over. Edit: gently caress me, it's just up now - after I gave up on them putting it up anytime soon and spoiled the results. The Russia game was available at 7am, the GERMEX game a little after 8am, and TUNENG after 10. Amoeba102 fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Jun 19, 2018 |

I remember a kid brought the gold painted variation of the 2002 World Cup ball to school and we played with it at lunch time. At one point the kid booted it really hard into another kid who jumped out right in front of him and it literally broke his arm because it was pumped up too much so was hard as a rock lol. I didn't know that was possible.

I remember not knowing anything about soccer and being dragged to the Australian V Solomon Islands game at Hindmarsh Stadium which was a WC qualifying thing, where the mighty Aussies drew 3-3 against literal part-timers, thus discovering that the Socceroos are useless wastemen and that the world cup is the best. I don't even care about making it out of the group phase, I just want Cahill to score and come the 4th person ever to score at 4 Cups (Alongside Pelé & Klose & Seeler)

I reckon Cahill will get gametime in the next game or two, its a decent strategy to play defensively to eke out a point against france without chancing injury/fatigue on your old star, then bring him out to make a difference when you need and can realistically get 3 points. that said i think denmark will probably still beat us

I'd normally say we have zero chance of getting out of the group stage given our next two opponents are ranked 11 and 12 but then Poland got wiped by Senegal so its all still open.

Now that we are playing to win, we should see Cahill come on in the second half at some point. Otherwise I don't know how we'll reliably score anything. The results of the Cup so far has shown that the rankings are fraudulent and with our defence as solid as it has been I still think we have a chance.

The classic Australian defensive strategy is the more important the game the further they stand from the attacking team.
