So is 18 the number of missed goals?

Not long left now. I think Australia have a good chance this time round we have a better team than 4 years ago although some players are suffering from late injuries. Viduka is apparently in form but the minor injuries of Thompson, Kewell, Grella and Bresciano could well affect our chances

COME ON AUSSIES!

Bresciano is nasty. Does Valeri start and how about Vieri's bro?

I'm looking forward too Spain - Slovakia, Hope Spain fails to qualify.

Bresciano is a gun! Vieri's bro isnt on the squad and Valeri plays in the Under 20' team.

False. Remember 2002 (El Ghandour waved away 2 goals vs South Corea), 1996 (bad annullated goal to Salinas vs England with 0-0, in a match that went to PK), 1994 (Tassoti elbowing Luis Enrique on penalty area with 2-1).

Maybe then, But who gives a team 8-10 minutes to score a goal just to score a goal and get through the next round.

Bosnia got 2 red cards on 8-10 minutes and they were forced to let in a goal in the 97th minute in Spain, Otherwise they would've go through..

Serbia got 1 red card, because Salgado didn't want to play the ball out of play when Zigic got knocked down. Duljalj got frustrated and got his second yellow.

I was not happy at all when Corea got through because of that referee, Trust me, I want the game to be fair, But it's not..

Thanks. I remeber Valeri(who used to be in Inter youth squad) play in I think the Olympics for the Aussies, and Vieri's brother sucked for you I heard. Anyway we are close to the start of things and Im very nervous going to the Swiss club in NYC to watch the match...

The last point is best, it has happened to everyone. I don't believe that the Koreans paid off anyone, I don't think we paid off anyone, that's just how bad FIFA's officiating is. Any Bosnian or Serb should angry with FIFA for what happened if they felt angry but nothing will happen... trust us on this.

Trust me, Serbia has been very unlucky with the referee's too..

Anyways, The first 25 minutes has been pretty boring between Norway and Czech Republic. Pretty weak game for sure..

Hope it builds up and gets better..
