Australia beat Tunisia 1-0 in an acceptable match played at Al Janoub Stadiumwithin the framework of the second day of Group D of the Qatar 2022 World Cup and dreams of advancing to the round of 16. Mitchell Duke, 23 minutes into the first half, gave the Oceanic team the victory. With this result, Australia added their first three units and reached second position, while Tunisia was bottom in their area with one point.
The meeting had an auspicious start for the African team: he was confident, cut off the few advances his rival had and was poignant when attacking. However, after fifteen minutes, the “Socceroos” took possession of the ball and bothered their opponent with constant pressure.
The shortcomings in Tunisia’s game began to be more and more noticeable as the minutes passed. and a mismatch added to the passivity of the defense allowed Australia to go into the break with the minimum advantage: Goodwin received the ball on the left wing, raised his head and put a cross for Duke to sign the 1-0.
In the addition, Australia once again repeated its dominance and had an interesting start with dangerous actions in the rival goal, but with the passing of the minutes, the need of those from Africa led them to press and recover the ball to besiege their rival. However, they never found a way to penetrate the defensive wall that Australia proposed to take three valuable points that allow them to dream of a place in the round of 16.
