OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! Wat a feeling! I think after watching that 93 minutes, I've just lost 10 years off my life. Thank Christ I'm still young :lol:
If Kalac is a better goalkeeper than Schwarzer, then I am deadset a dutch astronaut. He was terrible. None of his takes this morning had any conviction about them. He looked suspect every time Croatia got anywhere near our box. Please Guus put Mark back in between the sticks for Tuesday morning at 1am(AEST).
Our defence imo was the worst its been out of the three matches. Only a few last ditch tackles, saved our bacon, especially from Craig Moore. Emerton not being there on Tuesday will be a big loss, meaning Wilkshere back into the side :crazy: Before Emerton got sent off I thought he was one of our best, but there is no doubting the class of Harry Kewell either, he was in everything.
The character this side has is second to none, in all three games we've had to come from behind, and of those three matches, we managed to fight back and win and get a draw. In the other game, we outplayed Brazil for the most part, but just couldn't find the back of the net.
When is the officialling in any sport these days going to get better? I thought the terrible decisions were reserved for NRL referees, but it appears its contagious. That English ref this morning was absolutely terrible. Since when do THREE yellow cards equal one red card? And since when is a handball in the box not a penalty? The englishman needs to have a long hard look at himself.
Maybe just maybe now we're into the final 16 we might get a half decent ref for the game against Italy. As a side note, I hope all the aussie supporters in Germany head off to the airport and wave goodbye to the USA, after their coach said we were making up the numbers. Well champ, it appears as though we're through to the second round and your team is heading home. Shove that up ur a$$!!!
