The game he was watching a replay of was against France, it was just a friendly before the World Cup.
Joyce was at the Commercial Hotel in Walcha, and staff at the pub confirmed to Guardian Australia that Joyce did watch the wrong match.
“We hadn’t even realised until today that it was the wrong match. The crowd didn’t notice either, it’s been news to us.”
Looks like the whole pub was duped.
Yes, in the footage he uploaded to social media you can see about 30 other people watching the game.
