I would just like to say well done to the Socceroos in beating Qatar 3-0. This was Pim Verbeek's first competitive match in charge of the Socceroos...

Congratulations!!!

With the final round of qualification now sorted, I think we'd have to be quietly confident of making it to South Africa. By my reckoning Japan and us will be fighting it out for the top 2 places in Group A, with Uzbhekistan as the dark horses. Qatar and Bahrain shouldn't be too much trouble...

Go The Socceroos!
