Great discussion from @roundballaus.bsky.social on #YoungSocceroos campaign at #FIFAU20WorldCup .
They had a tough draw tbf - Argentina & Italy in groups, but great to see #BrisbaneRoar youngster Lucas Herrington get 90mins in final group game.
Have a listen if you like..⬇️

Even ignoring the Asian Cup and just focusing on this #U20WC, this #YoungSocceroos team has had more to it than many past iterations. But now probably done, the way they’ve lost track of each of their three games has been quite the lesson for the more hard-nosed improvement needed at this level*.
##U20WC #YoungSocceroos with the win 3-1 👏👏 Now they wait on results to see if they advance
#U20WC #YoungSocceroos leading #Cuba 3-0. In with a chance to make the round of 16 👏🤞
A tough loss for the Young Socceroos this morning but a shoutout to the supporters for getting behind the lads in Chile!

Great to see so many #A-League players in the #YoungSocceroos squad - including 2 Roar players in Lucas Herrington & Nathan Amanatidis.
The boys will compete at #FIFA Under20 World Cup in Chile from 27 Sep to 19 Oct.

#European clubs taking notice of the talented young players coming through: the past two years have brought the biggest transfer income in #Australia’s history. And that’s probably the tip of the iceberg, now the #YoungSocceroos are #Asian champions.

Me in @theguardian.com;
The prevailing view that Australia’s youth are being left behind on the continental level was challenged by Trevor Morgan’s #YoungSocceroos in China.
But perhaps just as important as their victory was how they won the #AFCU20 Cup.

@aleague.bsky.social can we get some content of the #YoungSocceroos players returning to their respective ALM clubs and being celebrated and congratulated for their achievements from the rest of the club/team? Or at least ask the clubs to get it?
Dear #SokkahBS (or whatever we call ourselves) please spare a thought for Robbie Slater that had been robbed to whinge about Australian football after the #YoungSocceroos win.
Under 20 Socceroos celebrating their win as Asian Champions
Love this image. #YoungSocceroos #AFCU20
After #YoungSocceroos outstanding victory in Under 20 Asian Cup Final last night, Melbourne Victory playmaker Alex #Badalato has scooped the player of the tournament award!👏👏
Massive night for Australian football - the future looks bright!

Asia. Grabbed. #YoungSocceroos #AFCU20 #AUSvKSA
What a tournament from these #YoungSocceroos. Some of the best football we've seen from representative Australian teams. Some of the most exciting prospects we've seen for a while.
A potential seminal moment for the future of Australian football.

GET THE FARK IN!!!

He has gone further and further toward the halfway line each penalty kick. Bit of a joke really. #AUSvKSI #YoungSocceroos
That wasn't really a minute there, but ok...
#YoungSocceroos
Bonus football mood #YoungSocceroos #AFCU20 #AUSvKSA
If there's one thing that's good about going to ET, it's that KSA did play 120 mins a few days ago. So in theory, they'll be cooked.
But as they say, anything can happen.
#YoungSocceroos
They just showed us the quickest photo of that goal decision…then took it away!? #AUSvKSI #YoungSocceroos
No card????
Is this ref on crack?
#YoungSocceroos
How?!? #YoungSocceroos #AFCU20 #AUSvKSA
ARGH!!!!
#YoungSocceroos
Great 1st half up until we conceded. And when we did, ugh.
I know the boys will pick themselves up and get it done in the 2nd 45.
#YoungSocceroos
Oh dear #YoungSocceroos #AFCU20 #AUSvKSA
And as soon as I say that, it was over.
*sigh*
#YoungSocceroos
Will be checked, but ugh.
