Former Socceroo Robbie Slater and ex-international Andrew Durante look at rising Socceroo star Garang Kuol and discuss how Australia will stop French stars Kylian Mbappe and Karim Benzema when the two teams meet in their opening FIFA World Cup Group D encounter in Qatar.

When you play defensive, you get smashed by 7 goals !
Attack is the best form of defence !
No matter who you are playing, teams are nervous game 1 of WC and when you push up, they get the ball sure, but when they get the ball, not all their team is up.
It makes it easier to defend. Otherwise, when a strong team like France knows you are defending, they'll all push up into our defensive third.
Whats with the Dance music?
Durante …" he is a impact player " mate get real ,kid is very talented but 2 cameos in football is bit premature to call him a impact player
This is World Cup not A league ,when Kewell play for Socceroos he allready played in Leeds United not Central fricken Coast …
So take it easy on him ,he is there to get some play time a experience .So in other words me may become a impact player one day …
Nope, the actual players will be on the field with an intention to win the game.
In the African 2010 world cup we got thumped by Germany and never really recovered even though we scored the same points as in Germany.
Defence is good but,we need fire-power in strikers.Maclaren and kuol just might do the job.
