We Win!!!!!

Awsome game regardless of outcome. That second half was crazy - 3 red cards, only 2 sent off, penalties galore, 2 balls on the field, goals... geezz.. well worth 4 hours sleep...

Kalac was pathetic... very poor game by him. Good game by Kewl, and others too. Wasn't too impressed with Vaduka's performance...

FIFA really need to sort these ref's out...that bloke had a shocker towards the end

I cant get over now the ref's get manhandled. You touch a ref here, say the AFL or NRL, it gets you in deep trouble. In that game, the ref was copping it from all the croatians, both physically and verbally.

Kalac you poor (and relieved) bloke, i think you just gave Schwarzer the starting gig against Italy

The ref will be in the bad books with FIFA. those 2 fouls should have been penalties for ausrtralia. The handball was pretty blatant!
Aussies deserved to win that one.
Bring on the Italians!

Woohoo, this is fantastic, we're in the 16.

But something has to be done about the refereeing, three games and three bad ref's.

Well done Socceroos.

The refs have it in for the socceroos. Hopefully FIFA will realise this and give us a good ref for the italy game!

Well I dunno.... On the radio this morning I heard someone describe the thrill comparison between AFL footbal and Soccer. It's said that when you get a goal in Aussie Rules its like a kiss. When you get a goal in soccer its like an orgasm. I guess you have to be there........

I don't watch AFL but I know that soccer goals mean a hell of a lot as they are so precious in a game.

I know im an Aussie so i may be a bit basis but the refereeing the Socceroo's have revd has done its utmost to ensure we didnt progress. Can any one from FIFA see this or can the Aussies but in a formal complaint so it can be investigated. As we progressed it would be even better to look it to the three matches we have already paid coz we have been shafted.
