The Australian football team (Soccerroos - we can't really call them the Footballroos can we?) Tore the ass out of Qatar last night in Melbourne. Perhaps the new coach can take us past those diving bastards of Italy next time in the World Cup. Mind you, Qatar are not exactly a footballing powerhouse I know, but the Aussie team did well considering they had 1 training session together and the European players only arrived 24-48 hours before the game (10 out of 11 players on the starting side are European players) Timmy Cahill was the outstanding player for the Socceroos and deserved his goal and perhaps a few more. The Qatar keeper did an outstanding job keeping the score what is was, at times it looked like he was the only one on their team to have a heart beat. Next game is against China who drew with Iraq last night 1-1. On the 26th March I expect to be writing a similar report, just replacing Qatar with China. Final score Australia 3 Qatar 0
