I am in the midst of the worlds biggest sporting event. Tonight my team plays the worlds most famous and "best" team.
It is Australia versus Brazil.
Anticipation has been building and I am now a few hours away from kick off. Realistically, I expect Oz to lose. However, I hope it is not a massive loss. A 1-0 loss would be acceptable. But if we get creamed, then it puts a lot of pressure on the team to advance to the next round.
Nonetheless, the sporting romantist within me dreams of a draw or dare I go further, a WIN.
Imagine the headlines and impact that this event will have on the world of football. Pundits were surprised that we beat Japan but that is not a major shock as if we were do get a point or 3 against the best team in the world!
For that to happen Australia needs to bring the A B & C game, hope Brazil have not warmed up and underestimate us and like an Hindi movie, suppress realism and add a bit of dish and bish to proceedings.
Oh well..........I can dream

Good play from the Aussie's mate. If Viduka and Kewell had converted those chances, who knows.
But Kewel was being a brat confronting the ref after the game. It's behavious like this that stinks.
I have to agree that Harry was not endearing himself to people by acting like a brat. If anything he should be screaming at himself. An open goal in the 55 minute and another chance later in the match.
Poor finishing costs us a chance to be historical.
Bring on the Croatians.
