Arnold urges Socceroos to avoid celebrations

Agency :
Australia manager Graham Arnold urged his players to avoid celebrations and social media after the Socceroos reached the World Cup knockout stage on Wednesday.
Australia earned a place in the round of 16 for the first time since 2006 by defeating Denmark 1-0, courtesy of a second-half strike from Mathew Leckie.
“I’m just so proud of the players, the work ethic, the commitment, the fight, the way they played,” Arnold said. “Denmark are top 10 in the world for a reason, they have high quality players who play in top leagues and defensively I thought we were outstanding tonight.”
Arnold said he repeated the message he gave his players after the 1-0 win over Tunisia on Saturday: that they had not achieved anything yet.
“No celebrations tonight. That’s why we won after a great win against Tunisia,” the 59-year-old said.
“Some teams achieve something and they’re very emotional and stay on social media till 4 or 5 in the morning reading pats on the back. I’ve been around long enough to know that the most important thing is recovery, it’s sleep. Do everything to get ready for the next game.”
