Apart from a weak Viduka header and freekick - piss poor OZ
effort. Typical Schwarzer flap = first
goal. Stevo2007-07-13 23:20:08
Half-time. 0-1 Iraq.
2nd half. 2 minutes. Bastard. Equaliser. Viduka.
8 minutes. Oz free kick. Practically a corner.
Viduka header. Misses. Probably should have buried that
one.
60 minutes. Get in there!!!!!!!!!!! Iraq 2-1!!!!!
The Oz bandwagon is looking very shaky at the mo.
61 minutes. Oz defence opened up again like a can of beans. But what-ever-his-name-is hoofs it over the bar. Really should have hit the target at least...
75th minute. The Iraqis are denied by Schwarzer's
fingertip and the crossbar!!!!! Very cheeky chip by the Iraqi
midfilder. Stevo2007-07-14 00:21:17
10 minutes left. Can Iraq hold on for a famous win - thus
almost certainly sending Oz home????Stevo2007-07-14 00:08:59
85th minute. The Korean commentator calls Archie Thompson 'Archiebald.' Classic!!!!

86 minute. 3-1!!!! An Ozzie defensive howler!!!!
I think Neill f**ked up. Geez, 88th min - should have
been 4-1. Somewhat of a sitter missed by the
Iraqis. But to the Aussies defence, they look buggered -
it looks like about 1,000 degrees!!!! Stevo2007-07-14 16:08:46
90 minute, the wrong Aloisi appeals for a penalty.
Hahaha goodbye Aussie.
Call me immature, but I'm taking a great deal of pleasure seeing Oz
spanked like this...are the Iraqis any good or is it the heat
that's affecting the Ocksters?
Game over. Defensively absolutely
disgraceful!!!! Could have conceded about five
tonight!!!!! Missing a lot of first choice
defenders - and it showed!!!!!!!!!
Oh. Finished 3-1 by the way.
This is right up there with Iran '97. I mean Oz is ok - they
let us play in their league after all - but after the claptrap of
last year (remember the headline "Australia roos the World") it was
nice to see them hammered.

The heat sure is a good excuse for them. It's not like Australians are used to playing in hot weather or anything....
Anyway, Australia were sh*t and Iraq were good. It suprised me how easily the Aussies got rattled - particularly Grella and Neill. Aussie expected to waltz into Asia and get the top spot like it was their god given right. Reality check. Without Guus or another Super coach Australia are just another mediocre team, not world beaters.

Quote from Iraqs Brazilian coach Jorvan Vieira.
�Our strikers
didn�t give peace to the
Australian defence. We all want peace in Iraq but the Iraqi players
didn�t give peace to
their defenders,�
So Australia can still qualify if they defeat Thailand. I was up in
Thailand at this time last year and can assure that the heat is
very opressive. Put the pollution on top and it ain`t easy. I sound
like i`m making excuses for them! Good to see them put in their
place. Bye Bye Arnold?
Anyone remember 12 months ago ?

Ha Ha!!!!!!! Can't remember that!!! Must have
missed it - or is someone having a goof? Will update the
Thai-OZ clash tonight if anybody's interested. Late for
you guys though....
I've got on Aus @ $1.50. That way if they win I collect and
if they lose I can gloat.
Australia (fifa ranking 48) should walk this. Thailand (fifa
ranking 122) are average. A bit like their best team losing
to us.
