Virtual World Cup Semi - Australia 2 defeats Germany 1
July 10th, 2006 by Doogs
Australia had the perfect start with a goal to Viduka in the 3rd minute. But disaster towards the end of the half as a crude Moore tackle sent Ballack to the penalty spot, converting for a 1-1 halftime score and Australia down to 10 men. Still tied at end of full time, the game went into extra time. A nasty injury to Emerton, and some quick substitutes bought Archie Thompson on for his first game of the Cup. The move proved to be a master stroke with Archie scoring in the dying seconds of the game for a 2-1 win. Australia was going to the World Cup Final!!
