Australia ranked 23rd according to @TheAthleticFC in their re-rankings.

"Australia only managed 28 per cent possession against Turkey, but that was all they needed for a 2-0 win.

Pragmatic coach Tony Popovic has made them hard to break down, and this is a side that could exceed expectations. While Turkey have star names in attack, it was Australia’s 20-year-old Nestory Irankunda who produced the game’s magic moment for the opening goal."

Notable teams ranked above the @Socceroos:
22. Norway (FIFA Ranking: 31)
21. Sweden (FIFA Ranking: 38)
19. Ivory Coast (FIFA Ranking: 33)
16. Egypt (FIFA Ranking: 29)

What a game from Patrick Beach. The 22 year-old from Melbourne City FC in his @Socceroos World Cup debut:

- 8 saves
- 1.46 xGOT faced
- 0 goals conceded

Just an overall outstanding performance from Beach, and great decision by Tony Popovic to start him over Mathew Ryan.

It might just be copium but the more I see Ben Johnson in the spotlight, the more I'm glad he moved on. Dude seems like a prick.

Ben Johnson was pissed off during his press conference after a reporter’s phone repeatedly went off at the podium

@iamcutterbutter Definitely looked like a mason jar at first glance, I've since learned that it's a hard plastic cup.
