Hi Taike,
you're not German by any chance?? haa haa
Unfortunately the Aussies got knocked out by Italy. Took us 30 years to make this appearance, hopefully it doesn't take another 30 before we get another chance to compete.

My grandmother (my father's side) was German.
Australia did a great job and it was fun to watch them play. I don't see them as having lost for they come out of nowhere and even gave Italy, a soccer powerhouse, the jitters. The Australian team gained experience and a lot of respect.
Oh well, the rest of the world has still a lot of catching up to do when it comes to Australian football!
