Australia
You may already know that Australia’s national team, affectionately nicknamed the “Socceroos,” has achieved impressive victories against soccer powerhouses including Uruguay, France, and Argentina—even holding Brazil to a draw in past competitions. What might be less familiar is that much of this success stems from the extraordinary passion demonstrated by their supporters.
Though their 2018 World Cup campaign delivered mixed results, these devoted fans maintained their enthusiasm, often celebrating their team’s efforts with refreshing beverages. The Australian national squad ranked 41st in FIFA’s 2018 men’s standings but has since improved to 38th position as of October 2022, showing steady progress on the international stage.
