that fight was from last world cup in korea/japan. Apparently they had another brawl though. Ljungberg must be pretty stupid to pick on Mellberg...that guy is huge!

hhaha.....i was going to do that for the turkish team but the gay retards didnt make it this time lol so i am completely supporting australia this year, actually maybe i'll support china later on too hahaha i just hope they win brazil if they make it to the finals again...brazil deserves to give the cup to somebody else this year!!..actually then i am reminded..australia is in brazils group....effing crap that would be so awesome if australia won against them,that would be the ultimate game, i'd celebrate forever hahaha.

It was like that in 2002 - I had Croatia to support and of course, Croatia went to Semi finals (came third) in 1998 so that was a huge moment, but I am so thirlled to see Australia here. I feel so happy having both teams and also Serbia in the cup.

If brother Australia and Croatia can beat Brasil, what a moment that would be. But for now, I am concentrating on the Aussies beating Japan!

AUSTRALIA: Mark Schwarzer, Brett Emerton, Lucas Neill, Craig Moore, Scott Chipperfield, Vince Grella, Jason Culina, Luke Wilkshire, Marco Bresciano, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka.

JAPAN: Yoshikatsu Kawaguchi, Yuichi Komano, Tsuneyasu Miyamoto, Hidetoshi Nakata, Naohiro Takahara, Shunsuke Nakamura, Atsushi Yanasigawa, Alsessandro Santos, Takashi Fukunushi, Keisuke Tsuboi, Yuji Nakazawa.

Schwarzer starting as well thank god. I think it was set in stone, but I needed to read that to make sure.

HAHAHA that was hilarious - I remember that. Back in the days where Freddie had that hot mohawk.

Despite all of the media reports...Schwarzer was never in doubt. He confirmed his spot in that final game against Uruguay. His exceptional performance v Holland only further confirmed this.

Glad to see Schwarzer is starting - that man is CLASS.

Cahill on the bench. Strange. Hopefully Guus knows what he is doing though. In Guus we trust!!!

Foul? Fuck sake.

 

[matt#1]

fuckin cheatin Japs! We are by far the better team. C'mon Aussies. We can still win this!!!!

 

[mr_brightside]

what the fuck was that?! schwarzer was fouled. fuck

 

[azzie]

that was so a foul. or fowel. depends on your taste really.

i thought we beat the japs in 45!?! *sigh*

 

[azzie]

i hate ref bashing coz usually the ref does the best job he can, but honestly this dude needs to go back to coaching pee wee.

 

[seremify007]

That was a foul!!!!

 

[matt#1]

forget it. nothing can change that decision. Still plenty of time. Be optimistic guys!

 

[azzie]

well duh.

anyhoos it'd be fine if they were more agressive instead of throwing their weight around. brazil never throw their weight around, their quick, skilled and play with their brains.


hurry up australia.

 

[matt#1]

Is the ref really Egyptian? I think that the ref is Japanese.

 

[seremify007]

I noticed the defence seems a bit lacking for Aussies... but I also can't help but ponder the ref's bias!!! It's funny they keep referring to him by his nationality rather than name- eg. "The EGYPTIAN official".

Sigh. C'mon Australia!

 

[*Minka*]

If that referee EVER attempts to enter Australia, I hope Border Security SHOOTS HIM ON SIGHT.

 

[matt#1]

lol they're gonna lose.


teehee



also, australia are fucking sloppy in defence, they just barge into the poor little japanese.

Fuck off.

 

[mr_brightside]

This ref's penalties are fairly inconsistent =\
