World Cup preview: Group C

Australia has overcome a series of obstacles to make the World Cup and there are many more ahead in Group C. France is favourite to be the first through the group stage and that’s likely to leave the Socceroos fighting it out with Denmark and rank outsider Peru for the second spot in the round of 16.
