Socceroos ready for Italy and the world

Socceroos ready for Italy and the world:

"Their triumph in the most adrenaline-charged encounter of the World Cup so far sets up a tantalising meeting in Kaiserslautern next Monday (0100 Tuesday AEST) with the thrice world champion Italians who also lost the 1994 final to Brazil on penalties."

The early to bed, early to rise routine seems to be working for the World Cup enthusiasts. Our lot just floated into work today on a wave of incredible excitement. They had all seen the best football they had seen since they were little. They had all praised the skills of both teams. They said the match was just brilliant and just so superb and everything you would want from a football match. They said it got so exciting in the end the cards were out left right and centre and if the card count was muddled...it wasn't surprising because it was all happening. I have never seen these guys so child like, so lit up and so thrilled to bits. They couldn't find enough praise for everyone and said the muddled bits would get sorted out in the wash. So, Italy next. That should set us on fire as we have so many expat Italians here and they are so proud of being Italian Australians and Australian Italians. The pasta and vino is sure to flow in the early hours! We are so proud of our team and our coach...he's the man!! As for the guys...just get in there and have the time of your lives. After 32 years we are having a ball right along with you.
