Ahead of the Socceroos' highly anticipated Round of 32 knockout match against Egypt, Popovic draws directly on his personal experience as a player from Australia's historic 2006 World Cup campaign. He reflects on the reality that tournament football often comes down to an incredibly fine line between advancing or going home. With both teams chasing their first-ever World Cup knockout stage victory, Popovic outlines how his squad has prepared to ensure those critical, marginal moments swing in Australia's favour on match day. #FIFAWorldCupOnYT #australia #egypt Australia v Egypt | FIFA World Cup 2026™ | July 3 2026 | Pre-game FOLLOW FIFA’S TOURNAMENT CHANNELS BELOW!
