We know that Aaron Mooy is one of the key players and Tom Rogic is another player that Honduras needs to take care of. It’s a big team, they have a lot of European style even the way that they are managed. You can see that from the way they train and the discipline they maintain. I know they are accustomed to these type of games, they play in the English Premier and big leagues in Europe, so they know what to expect tomorrow.

The Fans

The Socceroos can expect a lot of pressure from the fans. The pitch is sold out, 39,000 fans are going to the game you won’t find tickets anywhere unless you play triple or quadrupled prices to ticket scalpers. The Australians can expect a lot of passion and pressure from the fans, the fans are used to cheering for the team no matter what – the crowd with be Honduras’ 12th player.

This is a big game, the last game Honduras played at home was against Mexico and had to beat Mexico 3-2. Is Australia a better team than Mexico? It was the same pressure as this game, they had to win the game. The difficult thing for Honduras is the second leg. As Australia plays the second leg at home, this gives them a good chance.
