Yeh the Uraguayans have gone right down hill since referee's cut down on the GBH attacks on the opposition

And us Aussie's have basically taken their spot, Football is becoming really big over here and more and more fans are watching the A-league. At the A-league final there was a recorded 64,000 fans and thats an all-time new record for Australia. GO THE SOCCEROOS & THE MATILDAS
