AFC Asian Cup 2023 (Qatar Champions)

[Topkent]

Just going to sit back for 30 minutes.
Absolutely no idea.

Wouldn't be surprised if we bring on another defender

 

[FreoRicci]

There's no way we don't try sit for half hour more and scrape penalties. Can't see how we even slightly go forward now.
I hate this football, hated it ub the world cup and still hate it. Its just luckball. Fair enough we are pretty solid defensively but every game is a dice roll and our luck was bound to run out

0-0 v Peru and dancing Redmayne saves the day.

Arnold has been riding the luck train for years. He’s an incompetent coach

 

[gaskin]

Finally Bruno for Duke. 90 minutes too late.

 

[samFFC]

Duke off

 

[Zidane98]

Take a defender off Arnie. Too negative.

 

[FreoRicci]

This isn’t Barcelona or Man City. But my god the possession Korea has had.

 

[FreoRicci]

Take a defender off Arnie. Too negative.

Out of subs

 

[Zidane98]

Out of subs

Should've kept Duke on.

 

[Zidane98]

Matty Ryan!

Yeah after a shit world cup qualifying campaign that was completely forgotten due to a penalty win. Team was lucky to even be at the WC, then we got lucky at the WC riding our luck and scoring arsey goals.

Now we're gagging for a penalty shootout again

Tbf we dominated them that day and were very unlucky not to win in regular time comfortably.

Should’ve been sacked after losing go
Japan 2-0 at home. That run of 3 points in like 6 games.

You really have rose coloured glasses hey lol we did not dominate them. It was a pretty boring stalemate.

Domination is what Korea are doing to us rn

 

[omgfridge]

Why were they talking about Gauci for Ryan, are we not out of subs?

 

[gaskin]

Here comes the going down from minimal contact and getting the foul.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

What a wasted attacking opportunity.

 

[jhong]

Bos has Been ordinary since coming on

 

[Zidane98]

Lovely turn by Zinedine Irvine.

 

[FreoRicci]

Taking off Boyle and Goodwin was overkill. Maybe one.
Maybe take off Behich and have Burgess as the third CB. Would’ve been okay.
This is just inviting South Korea into the game, when Australia were doing okay counter attacking. It’s a white flag and just park the bus for the result.

Keeper concussion sub?

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Miller trying his best to help Korea get a second goal.

 

[FreoRicci]

Where is this guy Miller from! Honestly so bad

Yup
Down 1-0 against Jordan at half time then scraped past the UAE before relying on penalties to make it. Organised defence and luck.

Less Goodwin has a fitness issue as he had previously, was 100% wrong call to take him off.

 

[Zidane98]

It's over
