A measly 1-0 win against the lowly Malta, overnight, doesn't exactly help Japan's cause. Ok, Australia's defence can learn from their errors from the Netherlands game - but don't forget - they did improve as the match progressed. In reference to Japan "striking twice against Germany" - Australia put 3 past Germany & 2 past Argentina during the Confederations Cup, in Germany, last year (with Farina in charge). To escape with a 1-1 draw (with 10 men) is a tremendous effort - given the strength of the opposition. With Hiddink in charge & with Schwarzer in goals - anything is possible.
