Aussies beat football crazy Turkey 2-0. Barely a murmur in Aussie SM, most of them folks can't even name their players, just whining about how silly the sport is, and AFL talk. How do they do it every single time in every single sport? They were gulping down medals even in Winter Olympics.

They are naturally athletic. Another country who are naturally athletic is Ireland.

Vini Jr. gets the ball, drives forward, loses possession, then sprints all over the pitch to win it back. Rinse and repeat.

He was the only one actually who dof something, raphinha was terrible, less said about Thiago and cunha the better

Turkey kept playing crosses in the box and these giants kept it out, when they failed the goalkeeper came to the rescue

Ireland is also damn good. 

 

Aus and NZ punch way above their weight in sports. And are even the absolute best or second best in some sports, like Aus in cricket/swimming/tennis/cycling, NZ in rugby/sailing/rowing. There are many of them in NBA, UFC, F1, golf tours etc. 

 

All these countries have sports culture, culture of excellence, ambition, are very rich also, and ideal diet/nutrition. Hockey was unknown to Aus till Dhyan Chand's tour there in 30s. Then they picked up that sport, and are such a powerhouse today, lead India in H2H by some ridiculous margin like 100-25. Netherlands, Germany, Belgium all are better but with Aussies you know that they will not just beat you but inflict generational trauma.

Good to see Turks lose. Their players do the 'Grey Wolves' celebration when they score, do read about that evil, fascist organization. Turkey is no better than a Qatar or Saudi. In fact what they have done to the Armenians, Greeks, Cypriots, Kurds is despicable.
