Very weak Japanese line up.
Cue in the rack from them

Yep, virtually unknowns outside of Kamada starting.

Who the ■■■■ are these people?

Japan not giving us any space. When we do manage to go forward, we ■■■■ the bed.

The wingbacks are playing far too defensive.

They aren’t willing to push higher to pressure Japan with the ball, and give an outlet option to the defenders.

Edit: they’re not even wing backs, they’re playing as defensive fullbacks

Yep, flat back four. In a game we need to win. And we are at home on a big ground.

No creativity on the wings

Can’t control the ball for 10 seconds even

I think its a back 5.
they have 3 central defenders, and the wing backs are sitting back.

Every Socceroo post-2014 is either a winger who cannot cross OR Matt Ryan

Gross

Where are all our good players and why aren’t they playing? On strike?

nah your right. It’s a back 4.

edit: nope! haha they can’t make up their mind. They’re defending with 5 at the back.

Yeah there are two holding midfielders but neither is pushing back into the gap. Not that they need to.

It’s abit odd, because one of the defensive midfielders is dropping back to the defensive line when they lose possession
