For a good 15minutes that was what was said between the Argentinian defence.
It was billed as david vs golaith. The current gold medal holders against a bunch of part timers coached by a failed national coach. To be honest Australia were lucky to loose by only 1 goal, Argentina were not very sharp infront of goal.
After around the fifteen minute mark i got sick of the blatant bias comentator channel 7 had hired and put my TV on mute. Football goes surprisingly well with a soundtrack of Groove Armada.
The most annoying aspect of the game was a fifteen minute period just after Argentina scored where it seemed nobody on either team wanted the ball so 3 players spent a good while just passing it to each other more casualy than in a training session. Finally after enough booing from the crowd Argentina actually decided to do something with it.
It was not all bad tho, a few Australians did well and worked hard, Neil Kilkenny and Matthew Spiro to name a few. Spiro i believe has the potential to be one of our best ever defenders surpassing even Lucas Neill. Its a big call but quote me now.
Spiro above playing for FC Nurnburg in Germany.
