Extra time. We might have to win it via penalties.

CUB, looks like the ref is showing why you hate soccer  ;). The soccer board on BF is going nuts over the refereeing. The Japanese player that went off on the stretcher for which Grella got sent off apparently came straight back on  ::).

Down to penalties. Schwarzer saved us in the last minute of extra time.

Carney makes it but the Japanese player gets it and wins it for Japan. Aussies out of the Asian Cup 3-4 on penalties.

Penalties are a crap way to decide major international matches but them the rules. At least we'll go out now and hopefully get a proper overseas coach who won't play Sydney favourites.

Poor effort by Kewell in the shootout. He looked stuffed after 5 minutes on the ground.
The red card by the ref was a shocker!

Australia will always have a tough time in Asia with Asian confederation refs. The send off was a joke, most of the decisions against us were very questionable. It was a brave performance but they were let down early in the shootout.

The Aussies aren't doing too badly even though they're 1-0 down with 20 minutes to go. The Argentines are all class but we've had enough decent chances to score a goal ourselves.

Advocaat has bailed at the last minute. Back to the drawing board for the FFA.
