Australia is a team that showed a lot of pragmatism in these three World Cup games. He suffered considerably against France and was highly effective (in the rival goal) in the other two, with Tunisia and Denmark.
Both with Tunisia and Denmark, he received goal situations and in them it was possible to see that the defensive aid of the external midfielders was not entirely active (rather reactive). In this sense, they were seen defending the low block with six players (four defenders plus the two midfielders) and suffering, at times, various imbalances (disproportionate distances between central defenders and full-backs) in their defensive format.
When attacking, a direct, pragmatic team was seen. with a powerful center forward like Duke, who comes from converting.
In general, it does not present a team with great figures. most of its players compete in second-order leagues worldwide. In this sense, Argentina will have an advantage in duels, beforehand.
Worse than seen so far, the featured players were: Mathiew Leckie (right winger, very technical and with a good mid-distance shot); Craig Goodwing (Fast left winger who constantly seeks to cross and does it well); Mitchell Duke (Area striker, who works for the team at construction time trying to triangulate with passes into space for the wingers and who has a good passing game). Lastly, we must mention Mooy, player with a lot of European experience and previous World Cups. team emblem.
Another point to note is that They work well with the ball stopped in favor. have to be careful with that.
