Australia’s coach, Graham Arnold, has been feeling the pressure as the team prepares to face Palestine in the upcoming World Cup qualifier. The conflict between Israel and Hamas has added stress to the situation, but Arnold is hopeful that football can bring some positivity. The Socceroos are currently leading Group I after a convincing 7-0 victory against Bangladesh in Melbourne. Meanwhile, Lebanon and Palestine played to a 0-0 draw in another group match in the United Arab Emirates. Originally scheduled to be played in the West Bank, the game against Palestine has been relocated to Kuwait City due to the ongoing war.
