Australia's journey to the World Cup has been a tough and emotional one...

first they had to play twice world champion uruguay in the qualifying rounds...in the extremely tough game australia made it having secured the required goals in the penalty shootout..

then they had to play euro cup champion greece in the qualifying round....they won that game...

then world number 3 netherland....after suffering inital blow nd a red card, australia have managed to draw that game...

while the road has been tough...it none the less made australia powerful opponent which can cause few upsets coz not many teams out there are aware of australia's potential.
