World Cup 2006

The last place they want Viduka is running on the wings, they need him in the box.

[Buford Ripley]

Wow, Ze Roberto actually did well.

[therockbox]

What a waste from Bresciano, should really be 1-1.

Kewell!

[ONO]

Wow, I think its more surprising that France haven't scored a World Cup goal since they won it. =X

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

Should've just punched that one away, almost 1-1.

[therockbox]

Australia are starting to get back into this game now, could very easily be 1-1 or 2-1 to Australia.

[Face Turn!~]

Another close attempt from Kewel. Why didn't he play like this for Liverpool last season.

[therockbox]

He did.

[Face Turn!~]

He did.

[therockbox]

Slightly? I'm not entirely sure what games you were watching, but at points last season he was showing what he was like at Leeds. His volley against Spurs springs to mind, but he's also started running at defenders and putting in crosses again.

And Carlos fucks up again. Why do they persist with him?

[fineintent]

2-0.

Robinho has been shit hot, he has to start the next game really.

[therockbox]

There ya go, it's over. Shame really, if Australia would have taken their chances they're probably be winning now.

[IAceI]

Fred just gave me 3 more points in the league. From almost bottom I've become a bit of a threat now

Despite picking Serbia and Argentina to be 1-1.

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

Now unto France and Korea.

Who to root for?

[Chris the Human]

Bleh, that scoreline is not really a fair representation of our performance - I'd say the best I've seen Australia play in a long, long time. The pressure to score an equaliser ultimately cost us that second goal - but a loss of any size means the same thing - a win or draw against Croatia next week will see us through (short of a Japanese victory over Brazil).

So many missed opportunities, it seemed like nothing we tried wanted to work. So many near misses. I'm heart-broken

[Guest Anti-Hero]

*sigh*, oh well. Not a bad effort at all, but a shame about the result. That second goal was just awful to watch as well

[Guest Bosstown Boy]

So many missed opportunities, it seemed like nothing we tried wanted to work. So many near misses. I'm heart-broken sad.gif

[Dan]

Frederico Fred~!

Awesome name.

Prediction: France v South Korea 0 - 1

[gunnar hendershow]

Australia should be damn proud. They were a few missed opportunites and Dida saves from having won that. Now they need to regroup and draw or win against Croatia and its into the Round of 16.

[Chris the Human]

You shouldn't be heart-broken, the Aussies put up a Hell of a fight against a favored Brazil team.
