Wouldn’t be the first manager of a national side to obviously play a waning talent.

Don’t write off Ronaldo just yet. Portugal will have at least 4/5 games left and he will likely tap in a few and a couple of pens.

It’s all about the 1000 goals for the selfish Pratt.

Disappointing in our off the ball work against England and especially set-pieces. It’s been a phase of the game we’ve struggled in Dalic’s tenure. Which is frustrating, considering the average size we often have available.

I see us switching to 4 at the back for the next game and put an extra offensive player in. Dalic surprised me with a few choices against England. We did come back twice and had little spells of usual comfortable possession, but overall that wasn’t enough.

So how do our American and Aussie Reds here usually get along? What about tonight? Can we all agree that a draw would probably be best for all?

Anything less than a 5-0 thrashing of Donny’s dropkicks will be disappointing.

Boycott is suspended for this match only.
Come on Aussie!

Going away to learn the names of the Australian team.

Bosnia, Qatar, Curacao, Tunisia are likely to head home early.

Arminius · 19 June 2026 16:09

Bosnia right now would be in the 3rd place pool, and has a very good chance to move up. Their last game is against Qatar, who will be short two starting players for their match.

Iftikhar · 19 June 2026 16:19

True, but ‘only’ eight of the 12 third-placed teams advance.

mattyhurst · 19 June 2026 16:25

If Bosnia were to win though that’s 4 points which is likely enough. Both teams will have to go for it mind. A draw won’t do it.

I’ll be watching USA v Australia. I want Australia to win but I fear America will have too much for them. We’ll see. America started the tourney quite brightly and might surprise a few, but by the sharp end I expect the cream to rise to the top with the usual suspects there or thereabouts.
