And World football ("soccer") isn't even Australia's " first" sport (unfortunately).โฝ๏ธโฝ๏ธโฝ๏ธโฝ๏ธโฝ๏ธ
You deserve it Australia. You have a great team, a great coach, you neutralized all our players because you played an smart game. Also, you have very talent players. I hope you can make a great World Cup.
All our best wishes from Peru.
"There was only one way Peru was going to be eliminated. That was only if Peru was going to play a bad game and Australia played a good game." Yes. That's usually how sport works.
Peru faces Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Columbia in their South American qualification. Australia kept losing playoffs against teams from South America until the 2005 playoff. Then Aussies joined Asin Federation which gave it multiple chances to direct qualification with 3 other Asian teams. They did so in 2010, 2014 & 2018. But this terrible team failed to directly qualify and had to play two playoffs. So excuse the Peruvians for dismissing Australia.
It would have better to have Peru in the World Cup.๐ข Just look at their large traveling fans. I'm a Qatari and I was amazed by the energy they brought to Doha. 12k fans traveled to this match via long flights. I also hate Australian press and all the BS they spout on Qatar hosting this tournament. Nonetheless, congratulations to Aussies.
Oh no Australia bribed referees for World Cup again ๐ฆ๐บ๐๐ผ๐ฆ๐บ๐๐ฝ๐ฆ๐บ๐๐ป๐ฆ๐บ๐๐ฟ๐ฆ๐บ๐
So Peru was made offside…
Congrats from Pakistan.. this time Socceroos.
I feel a cognitive dissonance with the nice Peruvians on here.
Congrats Australia from Mรฉxico
Congrats to the aussies from Peru best of luck in the World Cup and well deserved

solo felicitar a autralia por ganar, peru estuvo muy confiado y ademas nunca se debe cantar victoria temprano, lo mas importante es que el futbol distrae de tanta fustraciรณn. Ahora que volvimos a nuestra realidad, saldra a la luz todas las cochinadas de Castillo. Congratulations Aussies!.
Congrats ๐ to the Aussies
congrats to australia they earned this win , peru thought it would be an easy game since their competition includes brazil Uruguay and Argentina, while true, that doesn't mean Asia is exactly easy hope you guys make it to the 2nd round this time, you have unsettled business with France and Denmark
I'm so proud ๐ฆ๐บ โฝ๏ธ
LETS GO SOCCEROOS!!! Let the Peruvian media drown in salt and tears. GG to Peru! Solid game
Good luck for the australia team to qatar 2022 im sad for my country but these is football .
Ohhh yeah congratulations Australia
It's funny because the Peruvians already saw each other in the second round of the world cup
Australia played very well except in attack, the good news is the qualification to the W.C and the opportunity for Arnold to continue to build up the team injecting more power in front. I like the way the team is already organized and the players' commitment
I love Australia!! Felicitaciones Australia saludos desde Ecuador๐ช๐จ๐ฏ
congratulations Australia, was a good match
enjoy the world cup. peru doesnt deserve it. just the dt of peru were the problem, the rest of them absolutely no. wrote by me… a peruvian with a bit of common sense… not like the 99% of peruvians….

guys, you have to eliminate France, this is your job as a part of the champion curse.
The Aussies and the Canadians will both be making the trip to Qatar. Kinda makes you happy to be a human being, y'know?
Arriba peru pero del avion
I Honestly recognized you guys played well and deserved to be in the World Cup. Looks like you guys actually care and studied the weakness of Peru and that gave you guys this victory. Iโll will always support my team but I recognized we underestimate Australia. Good luck in Qatar!

How good they won. In Ecuador we always support them. Intelligence won over arrogance ๐ช๐จ๐๐ฆ๐บ

I'm as indonesian just dreaming about indonesia go to world cup again because since 1940's indonesia never play in the world cup again ๐ฆ but congrats to our neighbor the one and only Aussie socceroos well played ๐
Australia: qualified for World Cup finals = 6 times, 5 times in a row. Peru: qualified for World Cup finals = 1. Where do they get their arrogance?
NOOOOO
