    Australia kicked their campaign off with a 4-0 win over India.

    With the score 3-0 at half time, we really should have scored more in the second half, and been 6 or 8 goals to the good.

    Australia were also a bit iffy defensively, and I reckon we would have conceded against a better team.

    It was good to get out on the park, and give the lads a run, but we'll need to lift our game considerably if we want to lift the Asian Cup.

    Yep. He's lost some pace, and he'll probably pull a muscle getting out of bed tomorrow; but he's still got wonderful skills, and great instinct.

    He's an arsehat though.

    AFC Asian Cup Final
    Japan 1 - 0 Australia

    1st Japan
    2nd Australia
    3rd South Korea
    4th Uzbekistan

    Very even final between Australia, and Japan.

    Australia dominated most of the game, but Japan had more quality chances.

    Australia fell in love with the long ball in the second half, and extra time.

    An absolutely awful piece of defending by David Carney was the difference in the end.
