Richard Garcia has been named in Australia's starting XI to face Germany this evening, making him the first ever serving Hull City player to appear in the World Cup finals. This clearly means that already this is the greatest World Cup tournament in history.
anjinhamarota I believe he's of Portuguese descent so Feel free to give him a little cheer.

Ex-Colchester United.

edit: 2 minutes after klsoe missed a 100% goal he heads in.... anybody knows when australia made up a 2 goal difference the last time ?

they have a strategy? Poland 2 - Australia 0?
Klose has 11 World Cup goals and counting...I hope he breaks Ronaldo's record...

Germany sure is handing it to Australia, and congrats to Ghana and Slovenia for their wins too.
And for god's sake, FINALLY!

well they were trying to keep their score clean as long as possible ... though that ship has sailed
also australia trying to push up forward with their defenders ? against fast players like özil, podolski, müller, lahm and khedira ? .... good luck with that for the rest of the game
if just özil and klose wouldn't waste their chances like this
Keep watching more football... especially the southern European players love to try to trick the referee that way.
Trouble is that in football this kind of behaviour (i.e. trying to get your opponent in the refs book, or ultimately get him sent off) is seen as professional.
So, lots of players do this nowadays....
BBC radio 5 have got a live feed from a deadpan Moritz Volz, in an Australian bar in London absolutely ripping it out of the Ozzie Fans.

Priceless.

a harsh red card .... yellow would have been enough, he tried to pull back his legs when he saw he was too late ...
Definitely game over now... 3-0.
Must admit, Germans are looking strong.. as usual
Edit... 4-0 now...

Germany just raised the pathetic goals per game average of this World Cup
They could have 8-9 goals easy...not much of a game from the Aussie blokes...

Was very close on my predictions...
My Day 4 Predictions:
Holland 3 - Denmark 1
Cameroon 1 - Japan 0
Italy 1 - Paraguay 0

Edit - Poland 2, Brazil 1, Germany 1 - Australia 0
The way Italy are playing and start World Cups, I'll go Riveros 1 - Italy 0.
A drumming was expected though. It was nothing compared to the post game aus commentary trying to find someone to blame though
.
not so close exepct the germany result for me
for tomorrow my guesses:
Holland - Denmark : 2 - 1
Cameroon - Japan : 1 - 1
Italy - Paraguay : 0 - 1
edit: for aussies mistakes: pushing the defenders way too far up the field and thus opening spaces for the fast germans
and also in the second half they didn't looked physically strong enough ... which got worse after the red card obviously
Don't forget Turkey won the Man of the Match award tooEdit - Poland 2, Brazil 1, Germany 1 - Australia 0
Yeah. For some reason this is being turned into a race and/or cultural sensitivity issue on some boards, but for me it's purely physiological. I LIKE drone noises at times and at first I kind of enjoyed the vuvuzela noise, but after a couple of matches I've begun to feel sick and irritable towards the end (and no, it's not because of the result. I support Germany
). I've started turning the sound down or off.
Any hope for Tim Cahill getting his suspension for the rest of the group stages rescinded by an appeal? I think it was obvious from the replay that it was never a red card (hardly a yellow in the Premiership), but I don't think it's too likely.
Did Robert Green get a mention?...the post game aus commentary trying to find someone to blame though
