It gets worse. I've never seen us fall apart with 2 goals in 30 seconds, both horrid yet so on brand for the Socceroos
Odds on to concede a 3rd and finish the game in the next minute or two over being able to claw one back now

Never in doubt
Without that late goal, we'd be bottom of the group.
Conceding 2 goals in 2 minutes probably has more to do with it
Glad I don't have Paramount and wasn't able to watch that.
Socceroos are the most frustrating / disappointing team to watch these days (and I'm a crows fan)

Crazy close group. Saudi Arabia are underperforming as well
There's no team I legitimately care about more than the Socceroos and I cbf with it atm...
The more you know about the system that's led us to this dire period, the less you care. The entire set-up and pathways from top to bottom is ****ed and no one in the FFA, APL, media, or anyone anywhere in soccer, talks about it or tries to fix it...
We're falling behind the rest of the world and it's only the fact we are a sports crazed nation that saves soccer. No actual planning, skills, forward thinking, or development to point to. Sheer weight of junior numbers, some are bound to be ok but that's not good enough
2 points against Bahrain. Over 50% of people watching this game couldn't even find that on a map! They have a similar population to Adelaide ffs. We are such an irrelevant level now it's just sad. 6 goals in 6 games against powerhouses like Indonesia, Bahrain, and China

The attitude is "Just get to the World Cup, and fill the coffers...that's all that counts!".
I'm serious when I say the best jolt to the system would be for us to miss out on 2026...things might actually get done to improve the level of Australian football.
