Australia hadn’t won at the World Cup since beating Serbia in 2010 and it means the Socceroos still have a chance to qualify for the round of 16, despite losing to defending champion France 4-1 in their opening match. In the final round of group games on Wednesday, Tunisia will play France and Australia will meet Denmark.
Tunisia impressed when it held European Championship semifinalist Denmark to a 0-0 draw in its opener but only occasionally threatened against Australia until the Aussies sat back and defended toward the end. Tunisia is still seeking to advance from the group stage for the first time in its sixth World Cup appearance but now needs to beat France.
