Socceroos 1 Oman 1

A stuttering performance, described by many as The Great Escape. Again Tim Cahill turns the super sub hero, blasting a 91st minute equaliser to a truly forgetable match. Schwartzer was the other hero, making world class saves from the tacky and speedy Oman play. However the time wasting by the Oman players feigning injury were disgraceful. Only teams from the Mid East are notorious for this type of behaviour, learning from their South American coaches. The South American cheating way is finding its way into the rest of the world game, starting in West Asia. FIFA needs to put a stop to this: maybe instruct the 4th official to add on double the time when players are 'obviously' feigning injury, or if a player is stretchered off in an international, he has to stay off the pitch for 3 minutes, not just hop straight off the stretcher back into play.
