socceroos - we lost.... but......

we’re celebrating anyway!



27 June 2006
Italy 1 Australia 0

AUSTRALIA'S World Cup dream died in dramatic and controversial circumstances in Kaiserslautern this morning (AEST), with Francesco Totti scoring the only goal for three-time world champion Italy - from the penalty spot with the last kick of the game.


Fans gather in Circular Quay in Sydney.. and dress for the occasion in Melbourne

Sydney and Melbourne might be making plans for a ticker-tape parade...



Announcing plans for a tickertape parade in Melbourne, Victorian Sports Minister Justin Madden said yesterday: "I know that Sydney favour themselves as the ... world football heartland of Australia but we believe that being the sporting capital, where better to have the ticker-tape parade than here in Melbourne?

This is going to be interesting........

Now that's the sort of comment Elmo that puts Sydney way behind when it comes to sporting achievments.
The Nation stops for the Melbourne Cup, it's hard to get a bus to stop for the Sydney Cup.
