I Miss the 1st 30 Mintues of the Match so i am little off track so insaid of my take off this match i going to put the wire copie of this match.

Sorry i was up untill 4:15 am this Morning finsh up a couple of post(Yesterday world cup Report and the gig guied, Because the person who i shared this comput was spening too much time find unclame cash on the inter net and eat up my time big time.

(From FIFA world cup site on yahoo.com)

Substitute Tim Cahill was the hero for Australia as the Socceroos scored three times in eight minutes to beat Japan 3-1 in Kaiserslautern and record both their first goals and their first ever win in FIFA World Cup™ finals history on Monday, 12 June 2006.
Trailing at half-time to Shunsuke Nakamura's 26th-minute goal, the opening Group F match turned on its head with the arrival of Cahill. He equalised with a close-range strike in the 84th minute and then fired a spectacular second in the 89th before striker John Aloisi put the icing on the cake two minutes into added time.

(Ed.) I saw all three goals and it was amazing to see a team who have not score any world Cup goals or even win a match pull the Upset as they pull defeat or even a draw in a big time win thank to a great Substitute and now even the Aussie are a long shot to win the whole thing Cahill will be a Hero.

This is the open match of what some say is the toughest group in the world Cup that feather four good team this is two of them. USA vs the Czech in one of the good match up that feather a USA team who want to prove that that there amzing run that put them in to the quarer-final before falling to Germany, On the other hand the Czech Republic are hugh fave to go far in the world cup rank high as No.2 in the FIFA World ranking (Brila No.1 from FIFA).

As the two teams goes on the pitch the hopes and Dream of both country hoping to goes far inthe world Cup as tghe Chezh hoped to prove there No.2 Ranking while the the stars and stripes prove that four year ago was no joke.

Afher a few mintues of good shot the Czech stirke first from a beauful header for Jan Koller of a nice pass from Zdenek Grygera to show why there the Numbers two team in the World to put them adhead 1-0.

The US tried to get the got to pull even but they cant pull thre trick with chance from Booby Convey,Eddie Pope and Brian Mcbride, The Czhec tried to go up 2-0 but the header by Defender Zdenek Grygera when over the goal.

The US Almost got it on even level whenb a sure Claudio Reyna goal from 25-yards out hit the left goal post as the tied goal is still elsued them as they tried to get back this game.

But Czhec got there second Goal of the Game with a sceamer by Tomas Rosicky that past ture US Goalkeepers to put the US down 2-0 and put the US down in a big hole Big time, And then in the 43rd Mintues Jan Keller fell Awkwardlly and injerd what is look lihe his Knee which could be a big blow if his is miss the rest of the tourny that could not happen at a worst time as the Czech goes up 2-0 at half time.

both teams was keeping the game at a even pace but it pick up as Marek to make it 3-0 but it was stoped by of a good takle from Pope and then Tomas Rosicky rocket off the crossbar.

The US had it chance when Landon Donovan put a pass for Eddie Johnson but the Czhes goalie Petr Cech was on the ball to stop that on and then the Czech came back the other side and wrap it up with a break away goal by Rosicky to put this game out of reach with a 3 - nil.
