Go Socceroos! ⚽️🎉 WorldCup WorldCup2022

Lionel Messi has scored for Argentina in his 1000th professional game.

The Socceroos have arguably been the better side but Messi is the better player and he showed it running into the box, taking a pass and sliding a trademark low shot into the bottom left corner.Neither side has had a true shot on goal so far and the Socceroos just managed to get a boot in as Messi attacked the box moments ago.

The Socceroos have had two corners, both times Harry Souttar has had bodies crowding him so he can’t get any powerful headers on target while Riley McGree has been a menace both in midfield and in attack.Rodrigo De Paul of Argentina battles for possession with Riley McGree of Australia.Here is a selection of pictures from the game that we will be adding to as it goes on...Crowds filled Tumbalong Park in Darling Harbour to overflow before kick off at 6am.

Second-half substitute Haji Wright cut the US deficit to 2-1 in the 76th minute when Christian Pulisic’s cross hit his trailing foot and popped over goalkeeper Andries Noppert and into the net. But Dumfries, who assisted on the first two goals, scored on a volley in the 81st minute.Runners-up in 1974, 1978 and 2010, the Oranje extended their unbeaten streak to 19 games and face Argentina or Australia on Friday.
