Congrats to Australia, but it would of been better if you beat us to go through.

Well I feel torn but I am happy that Australia went through, I would of prefered Croatia since I was born there. But Australia deserved to go throught and were the better team the whole tournament before the two teams meet.aliasp said:Yer we defended pretty bad - Kalac had a shocker... mind you the Croatians seem content to score then sit deep and defend. We did dominate possession and had the overall more play and chances... but the ref had a shocker really.
Bad luck man - good luck for the Euro's.
I have a lot of Croat friends who live here in Australia who feel very torn at the moment.

I knew Croatia would lose when they scored the goal to early and would start defending a 1 goal lead . I still think Australia will go through to the Semis they got alot of heart and spirit its good to see. Never have a seen a team so strong for Australia with so much hunger.
Yeah I know, I am from Australia. Sydney infact where there is a huge population of Croatians, I just saw it dosent show where Im from in here. Croatia and Australia were meant to have a friendly in Sydney but becuase they ended up in the same group this didn't happen.aliasp said:Thanks man. There are massive ties between our two countries as players on both sides had Croatian/Australian history. Would be good if we could organise a regular annual tournament between the two countries.

But with Portugal 3 starters down for the next match (assuming Ronaldo's injury keeps him out), England is going to back their way into the semi-final. Of course, by that point, they'll be up against Brazil or Spain, and judging how they've played so far, their WC run should end there.aliasp said:4 players sent off! Holy cow!
As for England - very unconvincing yet again. Such talented individuals yet so shite as a team.
