Eednud Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Easy 4-0 win for Australia in Bangladesh with Tim Cahill first half hat-trick. His second goal was no too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Pleased that Adelaide Oval has been announced as venue for Socceroos game against Tajikistan on 24 March. Venue for Jordan game 4 days later still to be announced. First International in Adelaide since 2011 and first WC qualifier since 2004, both of those v NZ.

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 It must be a bit shit watching football at a cricket ground. Presumably at least half the fans are miles away from the pitch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 USA lost 2-0 away in Guatemala last night. Would be hilarious if they failed to reach the final group stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionel hutz Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 They're now in third in their group.

Dunning1874 Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Utter scenes if they fail to make it, but their remaining games with Guatemala and T&T are at home so they should pull through. Not doing Klinsmann's reputation much good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarley Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 The big wigs at FIFA would be raging if the septics failed to make a WC. Sepp will be delighted if USA don't qualify. He probably still believes that the recent FBI investigations were an American conspiracy because they were pissed off not getting WC2022? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 It'll be an absolute travesty if they don't qualify from that group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Australia 3-0 on Jordan at half-time and absolutely cruising. 'Arry will be raging in the away dressing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Now 4-0 up. Bit of a turnaround from the 2-0 defeat in Jordan not that long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Now 4-0 up. Bit of a turnaround from the 2-0 defeat in Jordan not that long ago. 5. 20 mins left, this could end up 7 or 8 at this rate. Absolutely shocking tackle by their No23 on Kruse there. Only gets a booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I see Syria are through to the next round. There's a potential 'fairytale' right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dindeleux Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I see Syria are through to the next round. There's a potential 'fairytale' right there. This news doesn't surprise me. Based on reports I've heard they have quite an explosive attack and they play every game like it might be their last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 In all seriousness they seem to be a handy team, it doesn't surprise me to see them progressing. They were 1 goal from qualifying for the last Olympic Games and 1 goal from reaching the last qualifying stage for WC2010... They only failed to progress in WC2014 qualification over fielding an ineligible player (having trounced Tajikistan 6-1 both games were awarded 3-0 against). They didn't do well in qualifying for last year's Asian Cup, but reached the finals of the previous edition where the beat Saudi Arabia, lost 2-1 to Jordan and lost 2-1 to Japan... They won the West Asian Cup in 2012 (didn't enter in 2014)... U17s qualified for U17 World Cup last year, and reached SFs of U16 Asian Cup the year before. Could quote a lot more online stats but they do appear to clearly sit among the second-rank Asian nations. I suppose there is an element of surprise in that they're having to play games away from home and their clubs have limited access to AFC competition currently. That said one made QFs of Asian equivalent of the Europa League last season, indeed 3 of last 5 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
