Cant really have pity for a team that had a 10-11 advantage for 40 mins. Yes, it was a rediculous call but he sold the foul, it happens all the time.

LOL if the roles were reversed all of you would've been saying that the ref was paid off. Stop trying to justify it.

did you start watching football yesterday? diving in order to get free kicks or penalties is part of the game, anyone would've taken that dive to win the game.

as an australian i feel very cheated. but the fact that we were a man up and had ample chances to score, show how good the italian defence is, but i think australia did dominate the possession even during the first half, but we lacked creativity, where as everytime the italians got the ball i held my breathe.
role reversal, if australia won on a last minute penalty and the call was dubious i dont think we would care, a result is a result. it is just the fact that we
(A)were the underdogs coming into the match and
(B)we have not made the world cup in 32 years, and to come out of the wilderness like that was next to amazing. the journey to this second round seemd like a fairytale and it nearly was completed.
