Wow.
What a dramatic game? Amazing.
2 minute goal - great shot, Viduka sloppy tackle.
Kewell - where are you?
Penalty - Craig Moore - you legend!!
Goal Croatia - Schwatzer should have been on!
Better play - more attacking.
GOAL KEWELL yipEEEEEEEEE.
(was he offside?)
Hold on....
Hold on....
Brett Emerton - you're a knob. Why do that? If it was an accident yeah, but why? And why the first yellow? You miss Italy in the second round. Event of a lifetime. Blew it.
Craziness to finish. Three yellow cards for a player???? Two balls thrown in???? Penalty, goal? Red?
Is the game over? Are we through?
Bit of an anti climax to finish really, but...
AUSTRALIA IS THROUGH TO THE SECOND ROUND OF THE WORLD CUP!!!!
Very proud. Tear in my eye as I walked the streets today.
Wonderful!
Well done boys.
Big pat on back for Lukas Neill, Chipperfield, Culina, Sijovski and Cahill. Great games.

Gotta love Guus.

I don't like Kewell's comment here;

Kewell added, "The team knew what I was capable of doing. They fed me the ball and I was out there, I was enjoying myself."

Well, you need confident strikers. I'm not really sure what the point of Viduka is though? Is he some sort of large decoy up front who moves at glacier-like speed?
And why does Tim Cahill throw up his hands after every whistle??
The defense was good, as usual, I thought.
The refereeing was comical.
The game was thrilling. I bet the Italians are quivering in their Nike boots, no matter how much Totti they have.
