Getting sports-mad Australians to embrace soccer | 60 Minutes Australia

Aug 16 2023
REWIND BACK TO 2009 when "football" in Australia was exclusively in reference to AFL and Rugby League. Football - as soccer - was merely a blip in the radar of Australian sporting consciousness, despite it being the most played and followed sport in the world. There was a passionate few that lived for the game though, including mining magnate Clive Palmer, who believed so much in the potential of the sport, he bought his own A-League team. Fast forward to 2023 in the midst of Matildas Mania, and Australia's sporting culture is truly seeing a tidal shift in more ways than one. For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the worldโ€™s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes. #60MinutesAustralia
