:lol: Good point.

Well, the game which decided who was crowned the winner in the 1950 World Cup Tournament. :p

I know there was I never said there wasn't. I just said there wss no final of which there wasn't.

there was a wc in 1950 Uruguay won it

There was no 1950 WC Final:lol:

1950 World Cup Final. :lol:

But for me no.1 would be Aus vs Japan like many other people. Best 8 mins of football ever.

You could probably call 3 of them a dead heat
The penalty shootout v Uruguay
Cahills 2nd
Kewells equaliser
But Au v Uru wasn't a WC match

Having been in Germany,,I honestly thought the stand would collapse in the Australian corner at the K Town match v Nippon when Tim got his second -we were all delirious.But nothing can compare to that feeling when Harry got us into the next round.The atmosphere throughout that match with such a large outstanding support that Croatia had, created such a situation that I would find very hard to topple.
Australia v Croatia is recognised as one of the great games of '06 by the rest of the World

No.1 moment - Definitely Cahill's 2nd goal against Japan.

For matches not involving Australia, 1998 QF Netherlands 2 Argentina 1 sticks in the memory.

Definitely Aus v Japan

Best WC moment for me was Timmy Cahill's 2nd goal. As his shot went towards the goal, I lost it in the sun, then when I saw the ball in the net, I think I went into shock.

Yeah we lost against Ecuador, but at least we made that World Cup:p :p :p :p

Baggio carrying Italy through the knockout rounds in 94, scoring in the last minute all the time to keep Italy going. Shame he was injured for the final.

Grosso's 118th minute goal against Germany in 2006. Never seen my dad cheer for anything the way he did when that awesome shot went in (was probably thinking about the money he had laid down prior to the WC :lol:)

And Timmy equalising against Japan, then scoring again. I think we woke up my sister in law :lol:

First thing that comes to mind is Uruguay 2005 however overall, I think 2006 World Cup against Japan for the simple reason that all my mates jumped on the bandwagon once we qualified and I put up with so much shit for 40min or so once Nakamura scored. I had to physically keep one of the bandwagoning bastards inside the pub till the first goal came. After we won 3-1, he reckoned he loves the Socceroos and honestly wouldn't have left anyway....

cant forget croatias loss to ecuador and offcourse failing to make it to south africa :P

Just can't go past japan and the roos for me really.
God that was awesome.

98 WC QF Croatia 3-0 Germany
