Top Totti Breaks Oz Hearts

So Harry Kewell went missing again, the player (calling him a man would be an insult to the rest of us) who limped out of the Carling Cup, European Cup and F.A Cup Finals, misses his country's biggest ever football match - what a wanker.

Finished work early to see this and I have to say I don't think some of the Australian's believed they could win it whereas Italy played as if it was only a matter of time. Watching Italy play in the last few minutes was like watching the great 49ers QB Joe Montana in the mid eighties slowly moving his offense downfield, you knew they were going to win, but the manner of defeat can be so cruel, a dubious pen in the final minute of added on time.












Italy's tactics once Marco Matterazi was sent off were spot on - Lippi actually appears to know what's going on - they just said to Australia, "Come on then, try and beat us." I didn't think for one minute that the gold shirts would win and I have to say that Viduka and Cahill showed their lack of class once more, what a pity they couldn't much the energy of some of the lesser known players in the team.









Could be worse Schwarzie baby, you could be going home to be managed by an ex-international with no coaching experience or the relevant qualifications to do the job - what's that? Oh yeah, sorry mate.

  • It was cruel in the extreme!

    Is this the world cup of eccentric refereeing or what?

    So who's going to batter Blatter?
