The Socceroos Thread

[Mr Wright]

Korea up 1-0.

 

[sharkafar]

Bit disjointed there. Never really got the passing game going. Still, fought hard and 1-1 is a decent effort. S. Korea are a good side. Top save by Schwarzer towards the end there.
Win or draw against Bahrain and we're through. :good:

Iraq hasn't been confirmed as our opponents yet, Josh.

If North Korea can knock Iraq off tonight we will play them.

UAE are still a chance to play us but it would be a miracle if they beat Iran.

 

[josh11223344]

oh alright they said something about us playing iraq on fox sports news so I mustn't of heard the whole thing. That was a sick goal by jedinak last night

 

[sharkafar]

Great effort to top the group and only let in one goal (although a lot of credit has to go to Schwarzer for that)
Now it's time to up the game and have a real crack at that final. :good:

 

[sharkafar]

Great win for the lads yesterday. Bring on the Uzbeks and a semi-final!

 

[josh11223344]

we should be definites for the final now

 

[sharkafar]

A final for the Socceroos. The 'Blue Samurai' await. Fingers crossed.

 

[A.Snowden]

Did we win the world cup???

 

[josh11223344]

now that was a good game to watch we had the young guns and experienced guys stand up although the uzbeks can't defend. My tip for the final is 1-0 to the aussies

 

[snowman]

japan 3-1

 

[Sharky Pete]

My tip is Australia 3-1.

Tim Cahill always fires when we play Japan.

The Japanese will be crapping themselves at the thought of him playing for us on Sunday morning.

 

[josh11223344]

we never score that many goals obviously against the uzbeks we had a good game but we are like the sharks of 08 and will grind a win and at best might put 2 on them IMO but would love to see 3 in our favour

 

[slide rule]

An exact repeat of that Australia v Japan game at the '06 World cup, please.

Except McDonald to score in place of Aloisi.:cheers

 

[Mr Ryan]

Winning the Asian cup is like winning a gold medal at the Commenwealth Games. Yeah you won something but its hardly the Olympics. Lets be fair dinkim here - how many of the Aussies opponents would of progressed past the group stages if they made the world cup? Only Japan, maybe.

6-0 against the Uzbekkys, that reminds me of the good old days when we used play the Solomon Islands.
