Superb freekick from Srna

[den]

As clear a penalty on Viduka as I've ever seen.

Graham Poll, eh?

[Philly Rover ®]

Damn, wish we had Graham Poll refereeing the U.S. game in that case.

:ph34r:

I guess I'll take my whining back over to the other thread.....

[brfcshabba]

Haha Awful goalkeeping, decieved by the googly

[dave birch]

What is Kalac doing on the park? disgraceful keeping.

Penalty was for handball, den.

[jim mk2]

Are the convicts on the way home yet ?

Are the convicts on the way home yet ?

Dont be to hasty 2-2 now

[Ozz]

Who scored for the Aussies?

[USRoverME]

Moore the first from the spot, and Kewell got the 2nd, and Emerton just got a time wating yellow, and will miss the round of 16 game....

our favorite, Mr. G. Poll was the ref, and apparently missed 2 pen that would have let the aussies run away with this one...

Moore from the penalty spot and Kewell

[Grabbi Graeme]

Croats down to 10 men Dario Simic sent off

Make that 10 v 10 Emerton sent off for 2nd Bookable offence

Emerton has been dismissed - Looks like nobody will want him now

[USRoverME]

But what about that big lad the 'roos brough on, Kennedy. A poor man's Crouch it appears. Worth a look?

I'd prefer Karl Kennedy tbh

[Grabbi Graeme]

Poll has booked Simuvic for a 2nd time and hasnt sent him off

[Flopsy]

andy d'urso's bought a ginger wig

hes just booked simunic for the third time

[brfcshabba]

Poll does an D'urso. He shouldn't get another game in the tournament. He's lost the plot. Simunic has three yellows - lol

[Grabbi Graeme]

Gets better Poll has just booked Simuvic for what he thinks a second time when it is actually his third yellow

[brfcshabba]

Can anybody find a report on a website that shows he got three yellows?

[Perth_Rover]

yes were through to the round of 16!

the eurosport commentary clearly calls it his thrid card, and mentions that poll forgot to wave the red for card #2.

3 cards, minutes 62, 90 and 90+3

We live another day.

That 2nd half was mayhem towards the end.

[USRoverME]

well done aussies, try to keep all 11 on the pitch for the match v Italy, as the USA can attest, it helps to not play with only 9!

[Ninjathunder]

Well done Australia. I only saw the last 20 minutes and what entertainment! Player booked three times...three sendings off...offside goal...dodgy keeper.....and total chaos from OUR man in the middle.

[Hanks]

well apart from simuvic ending up with 4 cards, 2 blatant penaltys for australia not being given, australia's 2nd goal being offside does the forum think that graham poll has done the premier proud and shown johnny foriegner how superior we are in the standard of officiating
