Socceroos draw 1-1 with Switzerland ahead of Cup opener vs Turkey
The Socceroos drew 1‑1 with Switzerland a week before their World Cup opener against Turkey, boosting confidence and sharpening their tournament preparation. Australia showed solid defensive organization but lacked cutting edge in attack.
Antonee Robinson’s spectacular volley was the sole highlight, earning praise from fans. Coach Graham Arnold stressed the need to tighten defensive lapses before the opener.
The group game against Turkey will take place on June 23 in Doha, where the Socceroos hope to build on this morale boost.
