Holy crap - I can't believe how Italy won their match.
The Socceroos were tough, fair, talented, and gave Italy a damned good fight for their money. They had ball possession for the majority of game time, they won tackles convincingly, they had skill dammit. Everyone was so convinced we were looking at extra time. Attacking, attacking, and then... fuck me... a penalty kick in the last 30 seconds of injury time. To Italy.
You know.... OH you know.... with this looming that the Italians will win most UNdeservedly. They rolled around in goddamned theatrics, they fouled aussie players blatantly, their frustration at being held at bay by "rookies" was very clearly apparent. Any win is still a win but for the rest of the world, the Oz guys were our champions.
Cruel. Just unbelivably frickin' cruel.
Natural introvert, learned extrovert.

hey there. just wondering. what does Eurasian mean?
Hey Greg, I thought you'd be stationed by your beers? :) It's really good to see you online again.
Anon, Eurasian is an ethnic group in Singapore. It means I'm of mixed race, officially, and is classified as having European and Asian blood.
As mush as I like Italy, that was cruel. Check out the world cup wifes video on Robblogs.com, it is interesting.
