I'd be worried about some of the Australian tackling as some of them are close to what you see in Rugby.

Good first half for the Aussies, slow start but we showed much more promise after Chile pushed up 2-0. Hopefully we can show more fight in the 2nd half

Yeah we have always played a rough brand of football. Really hoping there isn't too many cards because of it, in our A-league your probably more likely to get away with some bumps a lot more than in Europe or South America.

Why was Cahill carded?


Was it not for something he said? After he got the card he seemed to accept that he deserved it.

Good for Australia to show some fight but Chile look like they can go another gear.

Haha yeah, ref's making good calls now 😁 

Was it good for Spain vs Ned 

Also I think we could have just had a penalty then. Disappoint

Cahill needs to watch himself. Charging around like a bull in a china shop.

Mythbusters proved that Bulls actually wouldn't touch a thing 😁
