YOU BLOODY BEAUTY: All The Best Celebrations From The Socceroos World Cup Win

Socceroos World Cup Lionel Messi Aaron Mooy Australia
The Socceroos have officially progressed to the FIFA World Cup round of 16 and fans have gone absolutely bonkers celebrating. The round of 16 (AKA the knockout stage) is usually reserved for the big hitters of world football such as Brazil, Spain and France so this is a massive achievement for the squad. The last time Australia made it past the group stage was in 2006. Back then, the Socceroos were tragically beaten by Italy after a controversial penalty goal which set back Italian/Australian diplomacy two decades. To celebrate, here’s a lovingly crafted collection of the best (and most chaotic) scenes from around the country after the Aussies beat Denmark 1-0. The eye of the storm for wild celebrations overnight was Melbourne’s Federation Square which chucked the game on the big screen. Fans braved the extremely inconsiderate start time of 3am (how dare timezones exist?) to pack the space.

And yes, , Argentina’s captain and arguably the best player in the history of the game, will be taking the field. As per the below quote, Messi is ~clearly~ shitting himself. Here. We. Fucken. Go.
