An early Keanu Baccus worldie put the Socceroos on the road to victory against Lebanon, eventually walking out 2-0 victors at CommBank Stadium.

Baccus scored early, and Kye Rowles doubled the margin with his first international strike.

But the win might have come at a cost, with Riley McGree and Jordan Bos both failing to finish the match.

The two sides will meet again in Canberra on Tuesday, but how did the men in green and gold fare on Thursday?

ERIN SMITH rates the Socceroos.
