Well this throws the Aussie group wide open...with Australia well behind the others...

Currently:

1. Germany -- 3pts -- +3 g.d

2. Ghana -- 3pts -- +1 g.d

3. Serbia -- 3pts -- 0 g.d

4. Australia -- 0pts -- -4 g.d

Australia have to beat Ghana to get out of the group now.

Brilliant result....for everyone except Australia....and (apologies to some on here) it's difficult to feel sorry for them!!

I still can't believe why Vidic stretched so hard to reach the ball to give away the penalty....?

And, I can't believe that Mick McCarthy was slagging off Serbia for not being more adventrous..... Ok, so they were massively helped by the sending off. But they were 1-0 up against the team most people now think are favourites to win the tournament. If England are 1-0 up against them with 15 mins to go at some stage in this tournament then I won't be slagging them off for not being more entertaining.....!!!!!

Vince Grella is out of the match with a knee injury. Not a major loss, he's been poor of late, but still a combative and experienced midfielder.

Plus Cahill of course is out of this one, but he'll be there against Serbia.

Kewell is expected to play this time.

Viduka might as well no longer exist!

Hasn't played for years, he's enjoying his retirement down in Melbourne I think.

Josh Kennedy will probably start up front, seeing as Pim Verbeek neglected to bring Scott McDonald along for the World Cup because he didn't intend to play a 4-4-2...which he has...in the warm up games and against Germany. :banghead:

Dumb fucking ref from MALI just fucked us over greatly! Deserved 3 points and a foot into the knockout stage but only came out with 1 point and needing help from our cousins across the pond.

FUCKING NOOB REF
