Massimo Luongo  6 – Beavered away in Australia’s midfield, ruffling a few Brazilian feathers in the process. Generally, used the ball well when Australia had possession.

Robbie Kruse  6 – Worked hard on and off the ball, switching from a central midfield position to a wing-back role in the second half. Often Australia’s most creative player going forward.

James Troisi  5.5 – Some flashes of skill but was often wasteful in the final third. A few dangerous set pieces in the first half before he was replaced with 12 minutes to go.

Tim Cahill  5 – Australia’s skipper battled well but often found himself chasing the ball along Brazil’s backline. Made way for Jamie Maclaren on 56 minutes.

Subs

Jackson Irvine  5.5 – Added some composure to Australia’s midfield after replacing Sainsbury in the second half. 

Jamie Maclaren   5 – A tough game to come into for the striker, as his side created little in the attacking third.

Ajdin Hrustic  5 – Struggled to get to grips with Brazil’s midfield and was outjumped by Souza for the visitor’s fourth.

Aaron Mooy – Came on with 11 minutes remaining, not enough time to give a fair rating.

Dylan McGowan – Came on with 11 minutes remaining, not enough time to give a fair rating.

Tom Rogic – Came on with nine minutes remaining, not enough time to give a fair rating.
