Probably should create a new thread for “non-World Cup Nation Soccer Discussion”… Watched NOR-SWE. NOR looking pretty good despite not making the WC. SWE made it close late. Watching for Haaland. MCI will be a very different team, with a true striker. I wonder if he’s ready to press, as he hardly pressed at all. Maybe it’s the nature of the NOR team. Also, third tallest player on the team out there yesterday. ---

0-0, HT. Australia weathers a flurry from Peru to keep things even. Feels very much like whoever scores the first (and only) goal will win. ---

0-0, end of regulation. Peru looked like it wanted to try and catch Australia on the counter and mounted a couple offensive pushes, but otherwise seems content to lay back on defense and see if it can fend off the Aussies without something catastrophic happening. ---

0-0, 105’. This will go to penalties, barring unexpected. Then, I wouldn’t be shocked if it takes 4 or 5 attempts by each side to finally hit the net. 107’ - and right after I type that, Peru nearly buries one but the header goes off the post. ---

The best way to qualify against a much more fancied opponent is probably what Australia did. Take them to penalties. (Also, play them during a pandemic so that there’s no home and away, in a really hot country that you’ve already played one match in). Brings back memories of 2006 when they qualified with penalties (against Uruguay) for the first time in 32 years. ---

Aussie PK keeper went full Concacaf. Not only did he do the dancing on the line routine, he also stripped the Peru keeper’s cheat sheet/scouting report off his water bottle and tossed it behind the boards. ---
