Gah! Tuesday?! Where did i pull that date from? For some reason i thought Australia v Brazil was on monday night. I ended up missing the entire first half.
As it is, most of my thoughts on the game have already been stated. I'm glad Hiddink opted for a dinkum shot at an upset instead of resting the yellow card players. It's disappointing that they lost, though i don't necessarily agree that they were outclassed. I'm still proud of 'em.
There's been a lot of bitching on Aussie TV about the referee's decisions during that game. What for? Honestly. I didn't think it was that bad. And as for Kewell's post-match "animated" discussion with the ref, i think he was still frustrated at missing an open goal whilst under considerable pressure. But it'll certainly be interesting to see what becomes of that.
Anyways, bring on the Croats.
