    2017 Confederations Cup

    Draw was held tonight. We've got germany, chile and the african champs.

    Germany on 19 June
    Africans on 22 June
    Chile on 25 June

    Tough but do-able in my opinion. should be aiming for semi's.

    The same team that's been struggling in qualifying through Asian groups is not gonna make a dent against two or maybe all three of them. Wouldn't be surprised if we bottomed the group without some serious improvement.

    Portugal v Mehico was a great game in patches. Draw was a fair result.
    ALso, never let it be said that we are the only nation with a shonky defence.

    Germany by at least 4 goals. Socceroos only chance is to go old school and kick the shit out of them.

    See i reckon we actually have less of a chance now the Germans have picked their second stringers

    These blokes are playing for the remaining spots in their squad for Russia.

    They be more interested in sending a message to the manager than the likes of Ozil Kroos Muller Neuer etc who would get the job done and coast


    I think we do much better against the African team. For some reason Aussies go well against them
