Australia's World Cup Campaign: A look back at Brazil 2014

It has been just over a month since Australia was eliminated from the 2014 World Cup in Brazil and it's time that we look back on a tough but exciting campaign for the Socceroos. Australia went into the World Cup as the lowest ranked footballing nation of the tournament but after some strong performances and exciting individual efforts, the Socceroos left the competition receiving plenty of plaudits. Although Australia weren't able to win any games, they were far from being the worst nation at the World Cup. New coach Ange Postecoglou walked away satisfied and excited by the prospect of what is to come in the next few years, the transition process was well under way. The squad landed in Brazil with a weakened side due to the many injuries that occurred in the months leading up to the start of the tournament but like Australia has done so many times, the team rose up to the occasion and delivered performances that the fans could be proud of.
