One of the best matches of Germany 2006.

Fun Facts: 1.The assistant manager of Socceroos at that time is none other than the current manager, Graham Arnold. 2.Australia reached the Round of 16 in two occasions. The ironic fact is that the opponents that denied the Socceroos' dream (Italy and Argentina) went on to win the whole thing at the end. Italy and Argentina also won their World Cup after beating the same opponent on penalties (France). 3.Japan beat Australia in the next year's Asian Cup held in 4 ASEAN countries. Aloisi got another goal, but the Socceroos lost on penalties in the quarter final. They also lost to the same opponents in 2011 Asian Cup Final held in Qatar after extra time, still with the same golden team from the 2006 World Cup (minus team captain Mark Viduka).

One of the most underrated matches of all time

Guus Hiddink magic was amazing

Tim Cahill is the greatest footballer in Australian football history, Who else agree? 👇

Tim cahill, first aussie to score in the world cup. Becomes Australias best footballer ever

Loved World Cup 2006. A dream for every football fan

1st and last time ever AFC v AFC match in 'WC GS'. Of course AUS qualified WCQ as OFC PR.

0-1 Shunsuke Nakamura (26 min) 1-1 Tim Cahill (84 min) 2-1 Tim Cahill (89 min) 3-1 John Aloisi (90+2 min)

Guus Hiddink's second magical shows. 🇰🇷 - 🇦🇺

What a beautiful World Cup it was! 🇩🇪 Btw this stadium is lit!

Best comeback in the world cup

yOU forgot the Hide Nakata middle shoot. That was beautiful and made the Keeper works.

日本人として、子供の頃の思い出したくない記憶。友達と一緒に観戦して、終わった時には誰も喋らなくなっていた。 この頃のオーストラリアのメンバーは豪華だね。Cahillは偉大な選手だった。

More extended highlights from the 2006 World Cup! 🔥

Guus Hiddink❤ big LOVE from Russia. Magic man, we remember and loves you❤️🇷🇺

One of the best formations of australian team footbal I ever watched. Many of these players were really great football players.

Australia and Japan are very stong team 👍 Love From Bangladesh ❣️🇧🇩

この頃のサッカーのブロックのなさや中盤のスカスカさは本当に爆笑もんだな😂

Monday 12th June 2006

ドイツのサッカースタジアムの雰囲気は素晴らしい

Removing the final, this is the best match of the tournament

この大会後もオーストラリアがAFCに入り日本と名勝負を沢山しました。

Nice 🎉🎉🎉😊

It was 1-0 for Japan until the 84th minute and 1-1 until the 89th minute, let that sink in.

キューウェルが横浜Fマリノスの監督に就任しました！

YOOOOOOO

Best ever socceroos team Jewell,Viduka,Carhill

This was Australia's first FIFA World Cup game since 1974. Can you believe this today?

日本のダラダラ守備が気になる。当日相当暑かったそうだが、それならそれで体力ある選手をスタメンで使うべき。まして、初戦から足をつる坪井は本人もそうだがメディカルチームの責任もある。あとは、守備のシーンで1 topならまだしも2 topなのだからもっと降りてきて守備してほしい。中盤のディフェンスも相手に時間を与えすぎ。全体的に日本の守備にあまりルールが無いのがわかる。 総じて、監督とその監督をここまで引っ張った協会の責任。負けるべくして負けた。

히딩크는 역시 한국의 영웅.. He also beat Jpn!! ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The japanese T shirt was very beautifull for this world cup

日本のワールドカップ史上最悪の試合 偶発的に取った1点を守りきれずに逆転されたことも、選手達のクオリティやスピリット、監督の采配…全ての面でオーストラリアに負けていた 今ではアジアカップやW杯予選で互角以上に戦えるようになったけど、いつか"ワールドカップで"借りを返す機会があるといいな。

한국인이라면 당연히 이 경기는 최고지!!

FIFA must take a firm stance on refereeing mistakes and vars in the Asian Cup tournament, a clear offside was even legalized as a goal. This is a bad tournament in the history of Asian football Iraq vs Indonesia

Technically is afc derby

JAPAN 🇯🇵✅

Present 1 Hours

👌👌👌

Krl, foi mt falta do Schwarzer no gol do Japão.

منور يا عصام يا عبد الفتاح

Australia fue la única selección de Oceanía en ganar un partido de Copa del mundo aunque a comienzos del 2006 los canguros se mudaron de Oceanía(OFC) a la confederacion asiática(AFC) desde sudafrica 2010 en adelante han clasificado a todos los mundiales representando a Asia por lo tanto no cuenta en la OFC, por lo tanto Nueva Zelanda será el sustituto de Australia

Tean Japan

🇦🇺⚽⚽⚽❤️⚽🇯🇵

2024 Asian Champions Socceroos

Gwnial

why is the commentator saying world cup finals, i don't understand?

I remember this match. It was a fun game. I knew Australia will defeat Japan and go to the next round. It was Coach Guus Hiddink who famously led South Korea to semifinal in 2002 whose magic made it happen again

日本にとっては悪夢でした😔
