4.20amNot the By Play the moment, not the occasion – as Popovic said pre-game – comes into play now. This can be the point at which a team gets shaky, overcome by the occasion. It happened against the US big time. It does not appear to be happening now, however, as Australia look to equalise straight away.

Egypt open the scoringBy It’s a set piece. Salah pokes it to Ashour, who takes a shot. Australia deal with that the first instance. But when the ball pops back out to Hafez, he finds Ashour to recycle and the latter places his finish between Behich and Irankunda at the far post. He grooves in front of the cameras. Egypt have the upper hand.Australia 0-1 Egypt, 13 minutesEmam Ashour opens the scoresheet for Egypt.Getty Images4.13amIrvine draws a foulBy It’s shrewd, and gives the Socceroos some real estate. Volpato engages in some trickery on the right only to lose the ball under pressure. Egypt have the ball at the back and it results in a nervy moment for goalkeeper Shobeir, who fumbles as Australia’s players close in. That could be a weakness to exploit.Australia 0-0 Egypt, 12 minutesReferee Gustavo Tejera from Uruguay talks to Egypt’s Yasser Ibrahim for a foul on Jackson Irvine.AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez4.08amBos gets a look-inBy Bos has a turn now, slaloming past defenders and has a very good sight on goal, but is stopped by Rabia before the real chance opens up.Australia have the corner and O’Neill takes it short to Volpato.

Jackson at Dallas Stadium.Getty Images4.06amVolpato takes the first shotBy It’s a good one. From the top of the box, he picks up the ball and, with three defenders around and in front of him, locates a gap for his shot that is powerful and may have beaten the keeper but for the pesky crossbar that gets in the way.Australia 0-0 Egypt, 5 minutesCristian Volpato takes a shot while Yasser Ibrahim and Marawan Attia of Egypt attempt to block it.Getty Images4.04amThe settling-in period beginsBy Egypt have possession and pass around at the back for a bit before seeing a way forward. The Socceroos shut that down and the ball is back with the backline. Both teams are feeling their way through the opening exchanges but the Socceroos are pressing high.
