Well the thing is that the ref only sees the situation once and at full speed. I don't think it should have been a penalty, a rather unfortunatel decision and sadly not the only bad one by a ref this year. Would havebeen funny if the Aussies had won, but honestly, Italy winning 1:0 against Australia through a penalty in the last minute... not something they can be proud of. Well done Aussies, I hope you'll qualify for the next World Cup too.

sorry for my basic english, first of all!
the day before, portugal and holland played a very hard match; every morning referees meet and decide how to behave in particular cases. Well, after that match, they decided to punish every and each small little irregularity: that's why an italian player was sent out before the end and that's why a penalty was given against australia. Maybe in other conditions none of the two things would have happened. Still, the australian defender was not an expert player, surely the italian one pointed to have a penalty, it was so obvious, everybody noticed it, except the australian defender!

I´m not from Germany but from Austria - I think the referee was an idiot!!
Anyway, the Australian team could be proud of their performance during the World Cup!! I think it has gained a lot of sympathies through the whole world. See you in 4 years, let´s hope that you have more luck there.
But: Bad referees will never die out, unfortunatly ...

For a Situation like this the FIFA changed the rules for Referees. There are two Linesmen and a Headreferee and also an 4th Referee to hlep in critical situation. But the Headreferee had to ask him.
Sorry for Australia

The referee was a fool, or he have got a lot of money for this penalty.
I´ve seen the game with friends (all german) - all of them are very angry!
Sorry for Australia.
But your team had forgotten to score a goal. 40 min 11 players vs 10 players, you must make a goal.
I hope you can understand my bad english.
Have a nice day
