He outdid even himself today, Williams.

He is absolutely rubbish...

Embarassing for Australian soccer that this fool is in charge of a major game. Absolutely no feel for the game and is guaranteed of a howler every game

I only saw the last 20 minute of regulation and then the rest but was a cracking game...

Not sure if anyone saw the Foxtel panel at half time, Rudan and Aloisi basically saying Williams is bent, penalizes those who've criticized him in the past, etc. I'll be interested in the fallout from it (is kickinit an expert in defamation too?). Entertaining TV.

On a more serious note, I don't know how Williams gets a gig in the A-League, let alone the Asian Cup, let alone the World Cup.

Kagawa missed from 5 yards with the last kick of regular time.
Emirates parked the bus after they scored and offered nothing.
Japan should run over them in ET

Korea through to the final after a 2-0 win over Iraq. Decent semi, Korea looked flakey at the back, Iraq are a good young side and should be around the mark for years to come

Crowd 21,000. Would've been 30,000 more in Adelaide.

When the FFA scheduled it, Australia was meant to top the group and so would of played in Sydney last night.
All of the major finals should be in Melbourne or Sydney.
