You Little Beauty!

I am in love with Tim Cahill. You might remember him for his prominence in my fantasy football team. Well today he did the team proud. And Australia too. Two! And then one to Aloisi. All three within ten minutes (the last in extra time).

Someone, somewhere is etching Cahill's name in the history books as we speak. He goes down as the scorer of Australia's first (and second) ever goals in a World Cup match. Our last outing in '74 we bowed out without a single win.

The last time I nearly cried at a football match was Spain's loss to South Korea in the quarter finals of the last World Cup. This time though, it was tears of joy.

Life is good!
