Patrick Beach had two days to dwell on dislodging Maty Ryan as Australia's starting goalkeeper before he turned in a World Cup debut for the ages in the Socceroos' shock 2-0 win over Turkey.
Coach Tony Popovic and goalkeeping coach Frank Juric pulled one of the great selection shocks by turning to 22-year-old Beach, in just his third cap, over captain Ryan.
The young gun pulled off eight saves - more than any other Socceroo at a World Cup - in one of the great goalkeeping performances at Vancouver's BC Place.
Those included a stunning fingertip save to turn Abdulkerim Bardakci's fierce first-half strike on to the post, and a diving effort to deny Real Madrid star Arda Guler's second-half dipping free kick.
