The Australia football side is no strangers to pressure but tomorrow, a loss to Denmark would shatter the Socceroos FIFA World Cup hopes.

Australia coach Bert Van Marwijk is aware of the challenge Denmark will provide in their second pool match.

He says the Danes are a better team than world number 7 France, who pipped Australia 2-1 in the tournament opener.

“Denmark is number 12 in the ranking and this says enough. They have a strong team, physically and have very tall players and that a weapon. We played against France they have more quality players but I think the Danish have more creative players.”

Australia plays Denmark at 12am tomorrow and you can catch it live on FBC TV.
