match.tacticalHeading
Australia line up in a 4-2-3-1, Türkiye in a 4-3-3. With little between the sides, control of the central zones and second balls should decide territory. The midfield — Aiden O'Neill and Ajdin Hrustić against Hakan Çalhanoğlu and Orkun Kökçü — is where the game is likely won. Set pieces and the opening goal often tilt tight group games like this.
