Watkins tapped the kickoff toward Maddison.
Maddison rolled it back into Demien's path.
Baccus left Australia's midfield line before the pass even arrived, sprinting straight at Demien's first touch.
Demien checked over his right shoulder and clocked Irvine sitting behind Baccus rather than joining the press, which told him everything — beating the first man wouldn't open the center by itself.
He let the ball run across his body and played it first time toward Henderson before Baccus could get a foot to him.
Baccus kept going toward Henderson anyway.
Demien spun around him and took Henderson's return facing Australia's half.

He lifted his head toward Watkins, who was already breaking between Souttar and Burgess, but Irvine had already dropped into the passing lane while Australia's wingbacks tucked in beside the three center-backs.
