nobs - you of all people should know that one player less means stuff all unless he is sent off early - all a team has to do is stack their defence & go counter attack - italy created much better chances than aust. & you would have to say their defence was excellent imo - aust. haven't the skill around the penalty area & it showed - i think what i have said is balanced, but that ref was only 10 foot away - shocker of a decision
