Australia and Holland might end up being a goal scoring frenzy. I think Australia for this game should be at least 25/1 and not 12/1. If Holland play the way they played against Spain, then I'm sorry, I can see it being a goalfest.
What was that, you say? :V Goalfest, yes, but not a one sided affair. =p
Yeah, sure, Holland were kinda off their game I feel, but nonetheless, what a match! Again we did ourselves proud, and if not for some poor defending... (I feel our keeper may have done better for the third goal, but on the flip side that'd be ignoring three good saves he made throughout the match, so really the dutch had plenty of chances). Defense shouldn't have stood off him so much as well. And the second goal one defender didn't come up and let van Persie remain onside. Our penalty was lucky too (after all, it hit the hand, but still fair because he left it out there). Nonetheless, still going to be thinking 'what-ifs' the rest of the day, haha.
That said about the defense - we lost our RB to injury the previous match, and one of our CBs got injured some months back to a sprinkler of all things... plus our other defensive midfielder (that said, his replacement did alright I feel). So we didn't have an ideal squad.
What a goal from Cahill. Guess we'll see how we manage without him against a Spain with nothing to play for.
People elsewhere (some of our dumber fans I suppose) commenting that our keeper should have saved the first one, which I don't see. He got close to it but Robben with that much space and time to shoot... was always going in, I don't see how he was at fault there.
