Socceroos or Soccerlose?

There has been an ad recently on SBS for Nike, it has this really irritating guy proclaiming (accurately) the virtues of Brazilian Football.

I even found the website where you can see this irritation even more...
See it here

Well, last night was a bit of a shock, although the Socceroos won 3-1, they seem to have played a relatively flat game, beating Liechtenstein.

Against Holland they got the job done thanks to some top quality goalkeeping.

Against Greece they got the job done.

But will they get the job done against Brazil, Japan and Croatia?

I certainly hope so.
