FIFA WC: Popovic Rues Sluggish Start As Australia Falls To U.S.
FIFA World Cup: Australia coach Tony Popovic blamed a poor first-half display after the Socceroos suffered a 2-0 defeat to the United States in their second Group D match at the FIFA World Cup on Saturday.
Australia entered the contest with confidence following a surprise 2-0 victory over Türkiye in its tournament opener, but struggled to cope with the intensity of the Americans in front of a large crowd in Seattle.
The United States took the lead in the 11th minute when a cross from Folarin Balogun was turned into the net by Australian defender Cameron Burgess. Alex Freeman doubled the advantage shortly before halftime, leaving the Socceroos facing an uphill battle.
