The penalty in the last seconds of Australia's game against Italy seems dubious but as I am not sure of all the rules concerning penalties I may be incorrect.

Goalkeeper must not move until the ball is kicked.
Also, any foul, which would result in a mere free-kick anywhere on the pitch, will result in a penalty if the foul is committed INSIDE the box, that larger area demarked by white lines.

Any offense committed inside the penalty area(portion that belongs to the goalkeeper), and which the referee blows a whistle for ~ is a penalty. There are however, certain cases where the referee will give an indirect free-kick, in such cases I really am not sure.
Thanks for the two points anyway!!

When taking down inside the 18 yard box by an opposing defender, the attacking team is awarded a penalty shot.

There are different levels of fouls in the laws of soccer. Penal fouls are fouls that result in a direct free kick. If a penal foul is committed in the penalty area the result is a penalty kick. Penal fouls are fouls like tripping, kicking, striking, hand ball, and holding. Other types of fouls that would result in an indirect free kick are fouls like dangerous play and obstruction. Even if those fouls are committed in the penalty area they still will just result in an indirect free kick.

If you are totally inside the box and fouled it is a penalty kick

In the box, any foul by the defending team grants a penalty kick. Outside the box, it's a freekick.
