Australia played very well despite the expected loss to Brazil. They played a better "English Style" game than the English team. Expect Brazil "to play to win" much more than "to play for show". You can still see some good chunk of the Brazilian beautiful game but not as used to be. The ultimate goal is to win. In fact this has been their style since 1994.

The Aussies had the chances, just didn't convert, but they held their own. All they need is a tie against Croatia and they are through to the knockout round.
