Oh the humanity. Back in my childless days might have sneaked it, but this in of itself is outrageous. It's nearly 1am for god sake! 1AM :eek:

My children will literally murder me in the morning

8:30 and 11:00 kickoffs, plenty of time for a 'kids go play with the traffic' nap before the football :P

Cahill has been on the end of nearly all of Australia's chances. If it's a draw he's the one that will more than likely score it.

Could easily be Bresciano or anyone else.

Edit: He's been subbed :P

Bresciano got subbed about 2-3 mins ago. He had a couple of good chances alright.

Can still see a couple of goals in this.

3-2 or 4-1 maybe, both 14/1.

Da Shins Kelly

Chile living on the edge here.

Francie Barrett

Nothing wrong with that challenge.

FourFourRED

I'd say it will stay 2-1. Lack of final product in the second half.

I thought Jedinak went off....man I'm wasted

Game has fizzled out a bit

dubrov

I think his touch left the pitch though

Yeah, the ref needs to lay off the whistle.

So he's doing it for you? Ask him to stop!

Francie Barrett

The ref hasn't given Australia anything but blows up for any slight contact if it's against a Chile player.

riffmongous

I thought he should have blown it for an aussie free there myself

Kirby

Chile's answer to Terry just came on.

Nib

My telly has automatically powered off for the third time today. Does this every 3 hours if inactive.

This is the magic of the World Cup.

Da Shins Kelly

Ah, I dunno. Chile have no conviction in front of goal.

riffmongous

It's really peetering out now

What a goal that was.

Game. Set. Match.

:(:(

Australia don't deserve that

Angron

Poor Australia

LightningBlue

Good goal by Beausejour.
Good advantage played by the ref. On this performance he'll be doing the World Cup Final.

riffmongous

Australia were finished anyway

That's 15 goals already. Nice

They came into the game too late really. Unlucky at times but ultimately didn't do enough.

Kirby

Chilean banana hammock. :eek:

Cannot unsee!

Nice finish. He's got a great name too!

keith16

First game where the refereeing was good. He even did well to get out of the way for Chiles third goal.

Charlie19

A good day of football.

Fantastic dummy.

kevpants

Ahh well. Good performance from Australia. Equaliser was there.

Confident the Chile supporting hipsters will be left disappointed. Not getting out of the group.

GoldFour4

In the overall scheme of things Chile didn't deserve to win 3-1. Austrailia put up a great fight in the second half. For a South American team I though Chile's play seemed to deteriorate due to fatigue which was poor seeing as they should have an advantage in that regard.

Corholio

Chille didn't play great but still scored 3 and had one cleared off the line.

Chile-Spain will be a great game I think. I'm not sure Chile's lack of height at the back will be that big of a factor in open play against Spain, possibly at corners alright though.

Also a more fully fit Vidal will add hugely to that team as well, he clearly wasn't fit from the first few minutes. Hopefully a few days will do him good.

Francie Barrett

Decent game I have to say. Australia worked hard and had a few useful players, but about half that team barely looked professional. By the end, there was just nothing left in the tank. I fear Spain and Holland won't be so kind.

You'd have to be pretty concerned about Chile's performance. At times, they looked brilliant going forward, but when under pressure they did not convince at all.

For once, I actually enjoyed the commentary. Think Joe Speight is very good, doesn't feel the need to over egg things and mostly sticks to the game.

All they need is a draw against Spain and they are through. They could get that. I don't think they will, but they could and its all they need now.

It's actually quite a hipster thing to call other supporters 'hipsters' for liking another team.

My first bit of luck.Chile to win 3-1 @ 12/1.
Champagne all round.
