Such a shame. Still it had no bearing on our game it was our shitty play that let us down.


What do you think about the FourFourTwo article Socceroos Feel Surface Tension?
AUSTRALIA faces a major headache as it embarks on its final World Cup preparations with coach Pim Verbeek describing the surface at Ruimsig Stadium, which will be Australia's training ground during its campaign, as hopeless.

Lets get to the crux of the matter. The Socceroos still haven't worked out how to play with the jabulani. Whereas the Americans where doing short crisp passes to their own team mates the entire game. The Socceroos were performing wayward passes all game.

They've had it for almost 2 weeks. Aren't they supposed to be professionals? The ball is not an excuse anymore, but its still quite clear they haven't come to terms with it yet.
