Socceroos silence doubters and march into the knockouts! | Straight Yellow

Straight Yellow wraps up from San Francisco as part of the Fanatics World Cup Tour after Australia booked their place in the round of 32.

Adam Peacock is joined by former Socceroos Aaron Mooy, Alex Tobin and Brad Smith to look back on a tense night against Paraguay, the celebrations with the travelling Australian fans and what it means for the Socceroos to be heading to Dallas.

The boys discuss Australia's controlled performance against a South American opponent, Jordy Bos starring on the right, why the Socceroos deserve more respect from overseas pundits, the USA's rotated loss to Turkey, and what comes next in the knockout stage.

They also look ahead to the day's World Cup games, Cape Verde's chance to make history, New Zealand and Belgium, possible Dallas opponents, the emotional baggage of Australia vs Iran in 1997, and finish with their World Cup winner picks.
