50 - @Socceroos had a shot conversion rate of 50% tonight (5/10) - their third best in a match since the beginning of 2018 (80% - 4/5 v Czechia, 1 June 2018 & 57% - 4/7 v Indonesia, 28 January 2024). Capitalise. #Socceroos #AUSvPLE #AsianQualifiers https://t.co/xLKqY4z6gB
Full Time: 🇦🇺5️⃣:0️⃣🇵🇸 This was very much a testing ground and many players failed it. Not sure a three man back line suits us. I’ll gladly take the L if it means we learn from it in Round 3. There’s work to be done especially in establishing depth. #AsianQualifiers #WC2023
