Brazil didn't do much in the first half either. Australia managed at least as many shots on target in the first half, though many were from out of the box. You can't really blame Australia for not coming in the first half with all guns blazing, and risk a Serbia-like drubbing. Especially with the group being so tight for the second place.Gene Reginato said:Australia had 3 good chances AFTER Brazil scored the first one. Until then they played with 11 players behind... Even when Australia started to dominated the game Brazil lost some opportunities too.
Had Australia played like that since the beginning, they would have deserved better luck, because Brazil played very bad.
