Speaker A:
Australia surprised a lot of people by beating Turkey 2 to 0.

So today's winner will essentially be in control of the entire group, Group D. And where it gets interesting, though, is that for some months now, American pundits have been dismissing Australia as the absolute weakest team in the group.
Speaker A:
And fans from Australia have noticed, players have noticed, and now they're treating this game like a personal insult.
Speaker A:
The US Has a questionable player and injury situation, but odds makers still are favoring the Americans.
Speaker A:
Most sports books have the US as about a 165 to 100 favorite.
Speaker A:
So you bet $165 to win a hundred.
Speaker A:
And part of that's because it's at home in Seattle.
Speaker A:
They're coming off a pretty dominant opening win, but Australia is the kind of team right now that nobody in the World cup wants to play.
Speaker A:
They're physical, they're organized.
Speaker A:
And the Australians are perfectly happy turning a soccer game into a bar fight with grass.
Speaker A:
So if you're looking for a reason to care, today it is America versus Australia.
Speaker A:
One nation gave the world NASCAR and the other gave the world kangaroos.
Speaker A:
And I wanted to honor this match by saying we are going to win and saying it with the most Australian thing I could possibly think of.
Speaker A:
Gonna root for Team US who just beat the crap out of Paraguay.
Speaker A:
We will defeat you in the group stage.
