yes, but even if we played 20 matches against european/asian teams a year,it still wont be as classic as a gripping as a world cup qualifying fixturePantherPower83 said:That and the fact that the Socceroos rarely get the opportunity to play against big name teams as well as in credible competitions. A loss during the week would not dampen the support for the sport as a move into Asia will hopefully see more big matches for the 'roos and more match practice for the team.
Australia vs Japan
Australia vs Iran
Australia vs Saudi Arabia
Australia vs South Korea
Australia vs China
definately look like more better matches then
Australia vs Fiji
Australia vs New Caledonia
but still it doesnt compare to world cup glory
the one thing the asian connection does, is make the world cup campaign
more like a developed effort with group stages and a points tally
rather then a tense 2 legged match which can be won and lost based on a single strike or missed oportunity
you cant underestimate the importance of getting our nation into world cup 2006
(its even more important then my general sleeping pattern
ive only slept 2 hours)
