Australia take on Kuwait in a little under half an hour in an Asian Cup Qualifier. Daniel Mullen is making his senior Aussie debut after some excellent form, and Eugene is again between the sticks.

The Aussies have only conceded 6 goals in 15 games under Pim's leadership but have only scored 18 goals themselves. And with our last two games ending 0-0, i hope we go into tonights game with an attacking mindset.

Anyone else looking forward to this one?

Kuwait 1, Australia 0

Worst performance ever. Archie thompson is the most useless waste of space in australian football. The only good thing out of tonight was Daniel Mullen, Fabian Barbiero and Robbie Cornthwaite making their debuts.

WOW what a performance by Liverpool this morning, when Torres and Gerrard are both firing what a difference it makes to the team

Alonso also had a great game, his first touch passing, spot on everytime

did u watch the game Pete?

Chelsea made it through with a 2-2 draw away to juventus, essien back in the team and Drogba in great form


Tomorrow morning 630am on SBS, Man U vs Inter Milan, should be a cracker

Great to see some proper support of the game for once instead of your usuall dribble, great work steve.

Must admit anyone would want drogba right now with the form he has hit in the past 3 weeks.

and yes didnt liverpool look awsome, on that form they could go all the way.
Does anyone know how to make money playing uno vs 6 year olds, its about the only card game i get to play these days.

maybe not all the way, Real Madrid didnt turn up on the night, they dominated liverpool 2 weeks ago and were unlucky to lose that game
