Anybody watching this game ??

there are 3 games scheduled today and as its fathers day got up had breakfast and decided i would sit on my ass and watch them all .first one was Japan & croatia a boring match of nothing teams .

Back to the game playing now *half time * and the aussies look like they are holding brazil as the score is 0-0 most pundits trhought the brazilians would be all over the bulldogs , Emerton ans cahill ( everton ) are playing there heart out .
as much as i like a powerhous team like brazil i cant help giving a cheer everytime the aussies get anywhere near the brazillian goal .

one of the best games ive watched so far second half starting .

later .
I think Robinho should add 'od' to the name on his shirt.
The Aussies were unlucky. I think they really shook up Brazil.

How is it when Brazil plays badly in its first two games but wins, its 'You can tell a great team by them playing badly and still winning' but when its England its 'I'm very disappointed in their performances. I don't think they've got a chance'?
This is the image in my head everytime I see Ronaldinho play!

I agree for a team that wasnt even given much of a chance to quality to come up against the #1 powerhouse team in the competition .hold them to zero goals in the first half and only lose by 2 in a hard fought game in which you could see the frustration building up on the brazilian side showed the tenacity and heart of the aussie team nothing to be ashamed of in this loss and we can look for better things to come form the ausssies in future aorld cups .

Agreed on both counts. The doom-mongerers are the one thing that keeps me away from the 606 message boards at the beeb's site.
