Australia is struggling to create clear cut chances - in fact they are not creating any chances.

Not so quick. Chance for the Aussies as big Kennedy is fouled right on the edge of the penalty box. Viduka strikes it well with his right foot but the keeper saves well. I thought Kewell's left foot might have been a better option.

The Japanese defense is outnumbering the Aussies when they get close to the box.

Hiddink plays his last sub with Wilksire off and another strilker - Aloisi - on. Japan might catch Australia on the break.

Aloisi receives a welcome-to-the-game yellow card within two minutes - silly boy. Japan is getting the ball into wide positions when they break but the chances are being wasted.

Australia is pumping balls into the Japanese penalty box but the crosses are very poor.

Seven minutes and another free kick for Australia. Aliosi hits it ever so well but the keeper makes a great save.

Sam Allardyce would be proud. A long throw in drops to my boy Tim Cahill who slides it home. A massively important goal. Can Australia become the first team to come from a goal back to take a point?

They've just done better than that - Cahill does it again. He is such a cracking wee player!!!

The Japanese are stunned, shell-shocked and anything else you can think of.

And there is more - Aloisi runs through the Japanses defense to score and to cap the most sensational 10 minutes of this World Cup.

Just minutes ago the Aussie fans in the crowd looked like they had just been told that all the breweries had burned down and now they are set to drink K-town dry.

Man of the match - Everton's Tim Cahill.

Here goes and let us hope that it is as good as the first half.

Six minutes into the 2nd half and Tim Cahill comes on for a very disappointing Mark Bresciano.

Television has just shown a replay of Guus Hiddink pushing the Japanese trainer. Probably not a smart move.

Japan also make a move with Tsuboi going off injured.

The second half does not the edge that the first half had. Thirty minutes left and Australia will have to start thing of pushing players forward.

Hiddink thinks that a big forward is the answer. Craig Moore off and Joshua Kennedy is on. Is the Japanese defense in for a Bolton-type battering?
