I think you're right....really hope we at least make the semis though

we're good enough to beat at least one top team along the way.

Problem will be if we meet the best team, or one of the best two, in the last 16 / QF.

World Cup 22 could have been great, but we met France and it didn't fall our way despite a decent performance.
