Well you can't win now but I can still stalemate 😲
Hey Trev,

You are just so bad you are making GBS look good. Isn't that what you said about Canada!!!

Suggestion: Perhaps don't make moves when you are 3 sheets to the wind! 😉

Australia aren’t going to make it I’m afraid.

I know the US have a good side but this is very very average from Auz.

Edit: and the chances they do make, they can’t finish.

USA have consolidated their rise in international football with that somewhat uninspiring but solid second win.

We won’t know what they are made of until they meet a more formidable opponent, but definitely a team to watch.

According to google:

Yes, multiple teams have won FIFA World Cup matches by a 6-0 score. A notable recent instance happened at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, when Canada secured its first-ever tournament victory by defeating Qatar 6-0 in Vancouver.
The historic match featured a hat trick by Jonathan David.

Other prominent examples of 6-0 score lines in men's World Cup history include:1954: Uruguay vs. Scotland (Group Stage)1954: West Germany vs. Austria (Semi-final)1978: Argentina vs. Peru (Second Round)1978: West Germany vs. Mexico (Group Stage)2002: Argentina vs. Serbia and Montenegro (Group Stage)
