Australia Vs Turkiye LIVE Score, FIFA World Cup 2026: Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the Group D match between The Socceroos and Crescent Stars at BC Place, Vancouver, Canada on Sunday, June 14. Both teams will be vying to register a winning start to keep pace with the USA, who hammered Paraguay by 4-1 in their opener. Both teams have faced each other twice previously in International Friendlies, with Turkiye holding a clear edge over the Aussies, including a dominating 4-1 victory. However, the pressure of the World Cup brings another set of challenges; whichever team deals with them better on the day, they win it irrespective of the record. While Australia had a comfortable qualifying campaign, they have never gone past the round of 16 in the five previous World Cups. On the other hand, Turkiye have won seven of their last eight friendlies, with one draw, and are one of the dark horses of the competition.
