OT: Association Football

[Eelementary]

Up there with 2006.
Well done Arnie getting these lads up.

Incredible!

I never thought we would go this far - this is insane!

Outside of Messi who else do Argentina have that is World Class.

Angel Di Maria
Paulo Dybala
Julian Alvarez
Lisandro Martinez


They've underperformed, but their squad is class.

A shank? That was a great f**king goal!

Yeah what would I know, but I though he hit it with his ankle/heel and rolled over the top of the ball. Wait doesn't he normally play on the right ? So maybe he kicked it left footed (not his natural). Well then that's amazing then.

Is Portugal or Mexico the greatest country in the world? Only the World Cup final can tell us.

Suarez on the bench.

Suarez on the bench.

He's Uruguayan, though .

Still - great player!

And I reckon even a 35-year old Lio Messi is a huge concern for us.

So, Australia is ranked 38th in the world. We have just beaten Tunisia ranked 30, and Denmark ranked 10th.
This is an amazingly huge achievement by the Socceroos.
2 of the 3 goals we have scored at this tournament have been scored by current A-League players.
We really punch above our weight in the world of football.
There are plenty of teams ranked well above us that will be knocked out, some of them very highly ranked.
Belgium (2) Germany (11), Mexico (14) hanging on a knife edge, as are others.
Don't forget that Italy, didn't even qualify for the tournament.

That's awesome (except for the stupid flares).

At least Dominic's playing catch-up, announcing a temporary Darling Harbour "live site" for Sunday morning - when Melbourne's had their suitable space for years.

It is an amazing, and again unexpected achievement. Two wins out of three - very gutsy performance, no matter what happens on Sunday.

Italy are still being punished for 2006 and it's well deserved if you ask me .

Well done Australia, but …
Two wins in two games is no fluke. The Australians went man-to-man with Denmark, and they were their equal despite the obvious gulf in class.

Fair play to the Socceroos. They competed for 90 minutes, took a few balls to the face with good grace and deserve their place in the last 16.

But let’s not carried away: they’re still one of the worst teams in the tournament. The incentive to win Group C has suddenly got huge.
