+x+x+xThe fact this game is on a midnight is testament to the quality of this competition what's that got to do with the price of fish???? Like the UCL they schedule early and late games. Also did you forget its in Qatar where its not midnight Has there ever been a 12am game local time for a club in the UCL? or Europa league? Even the other confederations like South America etc i dont see Liverpool playing Ajax at midnight local time? - they make it 'suitable' for both fans As for the World cup that isnt club football it is a different kettle of fish. - as it is a world competition you expect 'someone' to not be happy with the kick off times. A confederation based competition should aim to appease both fans... Absolute joke this was on at midnight AEST when an Australian side was playing - keep in mind this game kicked off at 8pm Thia local time they could of easily had the game kick off 2-3 hours earlier to appease both sets of fans. Anyway Good on Victory getting a point i dont see us beating Seoul as they pumped these guys 5-0 It may interest you to know that in Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Mexico and quite a few countries around the world, there have been local kick off times of 10, 11 pm or even midnight. Barcelona in 2003-2004 once kicked off a match at 12.05am against Sevilla in front of 80,000 fans. In Brazil especially, 10.00pm kick offs (local time) are reasonably common as t.v schedules run the show.
