What can I say? Aussie lost 1-0. Absolutely incredible game with Aussies dominating possession and continually moving the ball down the field like a well-oiled machine ... just couldn't get it in! Italy defended really well for most of the game and then finally came alive in their attack during the last five minutes.
In the last minute of extra time a penalty was awarded against the Aussies right in front of the goal (a controversial ruling, but what's the point going into it!).
The Socceroos played a fantastic game and without our star Harry Kewell who was on the sidelines on crutches - he's our finisher - manages to get the goals in.
It's so disappointing.
