Kuala Lumpur: Australia head coach Trevor Morgan is a firm believer in playing football the simple way and his team showed just that in their AFC U-16 Championship 2018 Malaysia Group D win over defending champions Iraq on Tuesday.
Having lost 3-0 to Korea Republic in their opener, Australia needed the three points against Iraq and they showed commendable spirit to carve out a 2-1 win.
Forward Noah Botic was glad that Australia lived up to their coach’s expectations.
“Trevor always wants us to play calm and simple but quickly as well,” said Botic.
“We started to do that after they went down a man and used it to our advantage.
“Mainly it was to shut out key players and stop them from playing long balls. Their playing style was to counter attack and get us on the break. I think we did well to shut them out.”
