World Cup 2006

Friday, April 01, 2005

Australia did indeed play Iraq the other day and very nearly lost again as they seem to do when faced with mighty teams such as Iraq (or Iran).

They went 1-0 down after about 10 minutes which was dead funny. Australian's are very passionate about sport, and football (not Soccer) is the number one extra-curricular sporting pastime apparently. Yes, more popular than surfing, barbequeus and quokka-kicking. Despite this passion, they're still a B-Grade footballing nation.

They were probably the better team in the second half to be fair, but Iraq created some good chances.

Disappointing turnout though - the stadium was pretty empty.
