Heh, thatâs totally true. We probably have the best players in the world, yet we have a shitty team. Thereâs no plan other than praying that one of our stars shines and makes something awesome.
It didnât work well in the elims, but so far luck has been on our side on the World Cup. I hope that luck doesnât run out because we have nothing else on our side.
Oh man, early goal from AustraliaâŚyet another goalie mistake, :shake:.
The ball took an unexpected bounce I think, maybe thatâs why he fumbled it like that.
Edit: O.o red card for hand ball like that? I donât think it was intentional. Itâll probably get recalled like almost every other red card so far lol.
Clearly a red card, he stopped a goal scoring opportunity with his arm
It wasnât intentional, thatâs what I was getting at.
Definitely deserved a yellow imo. But idk about red.
You get red for goal scoring oppotunities
His arm was clearly back, his chest was clearly out, but w/e im biased
They played awesomely for only having 10 men on the field - our only hope is to beat serbia (with our run of bad luck, not likely), and have either ghana beat germany, or germany absolutely smash ghana 3/4-0
so yeh, weâre done, disappointing WC for aus
BBCâs HD definition slow motion sideline cams say differently :wonder:
:u: Thats a winner, no more Rick rolls, vuvuzela rolls from here on out

Referee Koman Coulibaly could face expulsion from the world cup!

Hope he gets the book thrown at him. Guatemalan ref in the Italy game also pulled yellow card when it wasnât really a foul. ITaly tied the game cause of that Shrug
Whatâs with bad refs this time around?
Meh. Not like Altidore didnât dive for the free kick⌠The ref was just rubbish all together.
Iâm glad that the officiating this world cup has been of a higher standard that what weâd expect though, I donât think a lot of refereeing mistakes are gonna ruin much this year.
So the French team has basically imploded.
Couldnât handle the awesome that Mexico brought.
Anyone watching the Italy game on Univision? The announcer who doesnât scream GOL has it in for that official. Heâs calling him an idiot and everything.
Lol, epic draw by New Zealand!
Anyone catching the Brazil vs Cote today? I swear, Brazil better not struggle like they did with N. KoreaâŚ
That is pretty much the best âvictoryâ ever, for NZ, in football. Great defence, and Paston just did such a great job defending the goal. Its a shame that one shot in the 2nd half was off target, if we actually beat Italy, that would have been the greatest day ever.
Even if Brazil âstrugglesâ against Ivory Coast, itâs not like that would be such a bad thing.
Ivory Coast is a good team, and Drogba is going to start that game.
I still think Brazil will win, maybe 2-1 again or maybe a 3-2 victory. If they win this game they clinch a spot for the next stage.
In other news, French team are refusing to practice because of Anelkaâs expulsion like some protest, lolol.
Lmao omg I had to rewind my DVR to hear thatâŚawesome.
