    Socceroos World Cup qualification trail to Brazil 2014

    So our first Asian WC qualifier at home against Thailand was rather embarrassing, with a measly 2-1 win over a team 100 ranks beneath us.

    Whose getting up at 3:30am Wednesday to watch us take on Saudi Arabia in our second? Live on Fox Sports 2.

    We're the only team in our group with a win after the first game, and realistically shouldn't lose one with Oman, Saudi and Thailand being our competitors in group D.

    I'm off work, so I'm tempted to but probably won't.
    GU - giving everyone the freedom to post whatever they want...
    so long as we can all pay them out if they missed an earlier thread on the same topic!

    Strong win for the Socceroos over Saudi, 3-1. The penalty awarded against us was clearly a wrong decision, we should have walked away with a clean sheet.

    We're up against Oman on the 12th of Sept next, who just lost to Thailand 3-0.

    It's a great draw for us; a worse than usual Saudi and a better than usual Thai shouldn't be bothering us if we're on form. And Oman don't have a chance.

    If we don't top the group I'll be very worried.

    Oman tomorrow night (6:30PM AEST). Should be an easy win.
