It is going to be hard for the Australians fans like myself to watch the games because most of the games are after midnight and goes until the morning but I don't care when the games are, I have promised to watch most of the games specially the finals. Australia who qualified after 32 years are in a tough group with the champions Brazil, Croatia and Japan. One thing is for certain there is always surprises in the world cup and we might see some big shocks in this world cup.

The First Week of Fifa World Cup (Germany 2006)
The first week of the 18th Fifa World Cup has been absolutely crazy, we've seen some fantastic and beautiful football from all over the world.

Australia got it's very first goal in a world cup. Australia played a very athletic Japan side who have qualified for the last three world cups. Australia beat Japan 3-1 and dominated most of the game. All the goals came in the last 10 minutes for Australia but anyway this is football and Australia got it's first win in a world cup. We play Brazil next, who didn't have the perfect start in this world cup by beating Crotia by only a goal. We all hope for Australia to keep up the good form and draw the game with Brazil and qualify for the round of 16. 'Go the socceroos, you can beat Brazil'

We have some amazing football by the South Americans and the Europeans. The teams that have qualified for the round of 16 are host nation Germany, debutants Equador, England, Argentina and the mighty Dutch team. The rest are yet to be decided but by the end of next week we'll find out all the 16 teams who will qualify for the round of 16.
