I really like Farrell but he's destined to be behind Bos forever if he can't learn from that.

Just stupid.

I'm not sure what D'Arrigo meant with his gesture to the right before the pass. It seemed he wanted the ball in space. Perhaps it meant go to JCP. once again, simply go left, probably long ball. Safe and the goal doesn't happen. 

So Mexico beat France on penalties. Australia play France Sunday 10:30pm. Despite the disappointment of not going for the title, a game against a French side is a good way to gauge the level and a better TV time. 

if I knew that loser faced france I'd prefer to lose today :D

Meanwhile, any word on why tillio, triantis and neiwenhoff didn't play today? (Kuol also on the bench)

were we saving our best for the final? Or are all four players either injured or out of favour with vidmar

tillio had a knock so perhaps he was injured

 It's clearly shared match time with lots of rotation. Kuol came on off bench as did Nieuwenhof. Triantis maybe be a bit tired after the more recent travel and he played through last. 

It's a very young French squad, not their full strength u23 team

No Talbot tillio jelacic or triantis in our final squad

I'm guessing this tournament is more about getting experience than winning since we rarely play our best players

To be fair Farrel triantis and tillio unavailable apparently 

Maybe they’re all carrying knocks? 

Ahh yes, FA confirming on Twitter that they’re unavailable due to injury. 

Triantis had to go to Europe anyway so it's good he could meet up with the squad albeit minimally. Hoping for a good final show. 

Where is this being telecast? 

Can't find it on Kayo?!

Nope. It doesn't seem to be there. 

Scratch that it just popped up in the live sport.

That's a great cross by Kuol and Francois with a good header that needs and even better save. Francois got off the bench for Bristol City but a full season loan is needed this coming campaign. 

It was fantastic play. Kuol is pure class. Italiano is lightening quick. 

Another tap in in Toulon! 1:0 Australia.

That was a well taken free kick. Worked it to create an angle. Kuol low to the corner. Saved but with Hollman on the follow through. 

So we should start with a right back development program for Italiano now. Weight room and defensive coaching as he was originally a winger. Don't miss the bus like we did with Leckie. 

Was thinking the same thing. That position is wide open in the national team. It would be amazing to have someone who covers the ground so quickly and has the ability to go forward. 

It's pleasing to see Kuol working hard pressing and defending. 

It's nice to see us get a gift from defensive mistake for a change. Great hussle from A. Kuol to create it. 

Nicely done. Alou sprints down a backpass and can scoop it up and square to D'Arrigo. 2:0 on ht. 

Couple of Ligue 1 players on the bench and Tel from Bayern. I hope France make those changes so our players can test against them. 

Cam Cook to get a half in goal. Excellent young prospect. 

Hollman so engaged tonight. In that heat too. Runs thorough onto ball and smaxhs it against the bar. 

It's their U18 team.
