Nathaniel Atkinson has revealed his 'disappointment' in the role he played in France's second goal as Australia get ready for Tunisia.
Graham Arnold's men came up against the world champions in their World Cup opener. It was also a debut for the Hearts man and his team-mate Kye Rowles at the global tournament. A third Jambos star, Cammy Devlin, was on the bench as the Socceroos lost out 4-1. They took a shock lead but Les Blues upped the ante and showed the class at their disposal to turn the game on its head very quickly.
Atkinson - who has been a main player for Robbie Neilson - admits it was an eye opener facing Kylian Mbappe and Co but a good experience at the same time as he opened up on the experienced heads in the dressing room lifting his spirits after the game following his error in the build-up to Olivier Giroud's first of two goals.
