U.A.E. versus Australia

Post by Con M »

Precious win away in that awful heat. And who else but Timmy Cahill with the decisive goal.

Bring on Japan in Melbourne on the 11th of October.

I agree Con, in that heat a 1-0 win is fantastic, great to see Timmy come off the bench to win it, mind you great cross from Brad Smith.

Massive result. Timmy the super-sub saves us again!
It wasn't exactly the prettiest performance but playing in high 30's with humidity will do that. We certainly out ran them. Next round has some big games in it as well with Saudi Arabia away and Japan at home.
Saudi Arabia is second although their results do strike fear in my heart.
2-1 "away" win v Iraq in Malaysia and a 1-0 win v Thailand at home.

don't be so stupid.......with Rooney coaching England, Australia are second favourites behind them.

Amazing that in international captain, dictates to the coach where and how he plays.

For once we agree, massive result for every Football lover in Australia, an away win in 40c against a team that just beat one of the favourites for the group is a massive result

And some people think you have no idea :wink:

It's all about context innit?

If Modbury Jets draw with/beat Adelaide Uni on Saturday and ensure they avoid the drop I'm sure that will be seen by some as massive.

Rather amusing that poms visit the Aussie football forum. Given their toughest group game is likely to be away to Scotland its hardly cause to mock wins from others against such opposition

I would say this is the equivalent of us getting a win against Murray Bridge and claiming it as massive.

Amazing how Tim got away with the two handed shove on the UAE player just before he scored.

Look at the video...UAE player runs toward Tim and Tim just shoves him away and off balance....
Unfortunately pushing, shoving, grabbing etc. have crept more and more into the modern game...it's almost like AFL these days...anything goes.

Agree, more so by the defenders too, which is probably why this was deemed ok

Yeah that's it how often do we see Timmy bear hugged during a corner?
It's obviously a free kick but that bloke was all over our players every chance he had. Besides this mistake I thought the ref was good. He let the game flow really well.
