Tony Popovic gives us a little hint as to what we can expect from the Socceroos tonight, with one eye on the Asian Cup. He spoke to Paramount+ before the game.

It’s a challenge for all of us. We’ve named the same line-up, and want to see if Nestor [Irankunda] can make the same impact as he had the other day, four days later.

That’s part of his growth individually. But also, as a team, we want to develop and try to challenge Brazil once more.

We want to play on the front foot, especially at the beginning of games. Be aggressive, be positive, so we’re looking to do that again tonight which will hopefully give us a strong foot-hold once again.

It’s just working on the details; on the small margins and percentages that can turn the positive performances we’ve been putting in into positive results. We’ve taken some big steps forward, even this week.
