Expected this to be a dirty match contiuning the trend of the tournament but both teams seemed to play quite fairly with respect to each other. Both sides still going down a little easy.
They had half the match against 10 men and couldn't score can't blame Italy for that very well defended. Australia should have brought another offensive player on and they paid the ultimate price for slow / late subs.
If you want a classic example of cheating / dirty Italians sorry this just wasn't it.
Aussies should be proud they got this far in 2nd ever world cup?

Even to the point of reviewing incidents after the match and handing out 1 match bans to the worst offenders in the early stages to give players a warning that it wont be tolerated.....
ah well, I hope we stuff the Portugeuse at the weekend and Figo gets sent off for playacting.
Forfid said:keep dreaming. It wont happen.
by the way there was an elbow in Figo's face when he got knocked down. that's why the holland player got 2nd yellow and got expeled out. Get your facts straight. You are going to get your arses kicked by Figo and company, so bad im going to enjoy it.
your team lack the skills of the portuguese tecnicly and tacticaly.
My opinion about the teams:
Portugal = RR 13 kick ass group
England = RR 5 adding scouts
Eusebio needs the revenge!!!!!1 muhahahahaha
