The Socceroos pulled off a brilliant tactical move in their upset win over Denmark at the World Cup by taking a note meant for star midfielder Christian Eriksen and using it to change their strategy, new footage has revealed.
Danish substitute Robert Skov carried the message onto the field in the 70th minute of Thursday morning's clash in Qatar and gave it to the Manchester United superstar, but two minutes later it was being examined by Socceroos coaching staff on the sideline.
Two minutes later the Aussies completely changed their tactics as they brought on a substitute of their own, changing their formation to a more defensive 5-4-1 structure as they sought to protect their 1-0 lead.
