At least we still have a chance I guess.
Italy bundled out by North Macedonia in a massive upset. Italy playing at home absolutely battered them and then conceded the only goal in the final minute

Even if we get past UAE or Iraq in the 3rd place play off game, beating the 5th placed South American team, probably Peru, will be very difficult. North Macedonia gives us eternal hope.

The one bonus we have is that it’s a 1 leg playoff in Qatar. A lot of South American teams struggle to travel and acclimatise for 1 game.

Deserved win by Socceroos, but seriously, we should be beating teams like UAE. Peru might be a different proposition.

Peru aren’t this all conquering boogie man like the media are pumping up either. They are not that much better than us and anything can happen on the day especially at a venue we are familiar with

Also great to see two northern suburbs lads make it to the World Cup

The north continues to produce word class athletes especially in cricket and soccer
