A public holiday was declared in Saudi Arabia after their FIFAWorld Cup win over Argentina. 😎 Craig Foster reckons Anthony Albanese should do the same after the Socceroos' 'precious' win over Tunisia. 🎉 9WWOS
"It's very, very precious. Very precious. And going into the last game against Denmark, wow, what a moment for the whole country," Foster declared on SBS after the Socceroos held on for the 1-0 win.If not for a 2am start on Thursday the level of pandemonium at live sites for the Denmark match might have set a new benchmark for football matches involving Australia. Perhaps it still will.
"I was questioning if Harry Souttar could back up after 12 months of being out, only playing one game, wow, wow, the recovery tackles he made, the whole back four along with Mat Ryan, the midfield was very good today, it was a sensational performance." That created chances and it was Mitch Duke who pounced, heading home to capitalise on an excellent passage of play in the lead-up. Duke had been one of the players thought to be in line to be benched yet he was the star of the show.
