PBP Thread: Denmark vs Australia, 21 June 2018 [R]

Danes can really take a punch.

 

The Socceroos need to capitalize on these chances...

 

Wow just like a rocket

 

Man oh man.

 

Arzani on for Kruze.

Arzani youngest player at the world cup. (19 y/o). A Kewell-like player, who plays in the same spot. Lets see if he can create something.

 

Denmark are not impressive at all, been 2 matches now that they are not doing good.
France won’t need to be in top shape to beat them, a normal one would be way enough.

I am more scared of Peru.

 

Sisto. Wow

 

Aussies bossing the game.
And as soon as I type that the Danes get a good short near goal.

 

Can you imagine Ronaldo getting up like Cornelius just did?

 

End to end

 

Separated shoulders aren't fun.

 

Poor guy he tries to be honest and stand up even though the aussie is pulling his shirt. But that never gets rewarded. If he falls there and it goes to VAR they have to call a PK.

 

Habbout looks like done for today

 

They can call the foul regardless of whether he falls or not. They just NEVER DO.

 

74'

Nabbout out with a shoulder injury (fell awkwardly).
Replaced by Juric

 

The Danes are never down in numbers on defense. That's the key to their success.

 

The Aussies look like a Premiere League team trying to avoid relegation and stay in the Premiere League.

 

Sisto is my favorite new player of this WC.

"New" as in I wasn't aware of him before the commencement of the WC.

 

He's a nice player with Wass & Aspas at Celta.

BTW - where's Wass? How does he not make Denmark's squad?

 

If only that sequence ended in a goal. Wowza.

 

Man oh man oh man.

 

Arzani with the soccer equivalent of sleeping with sistos sister wife and mother in one bed. Sorry but that was just dirty clever.

 

wow, Australia looking lots better than Denmark

 

I have to admit I was hoping Timmy Cahill was going to be Australia's 3rd sub.

 

Both these teams seem to lack an alpha striker. If you notice, the teams that have scored goals in the tournament have a pure striker leading the line. Diego Costa, Romelu Lukaku, Artyom Dzyuba, Harry Kane ... Even Ronaldo is more of a pure striker at this stage of his career.
