But in the end the better team did win, irrespective of what Markus Merk did or didn't give, but if Brazil play like that (and against Croatia) for much longer they won't live up to my prediction of winning the tournament.
I want to add that the Aussies were great. The endeavour and workrate of every player was first class. However they, sadly for me, always looked second in a two-horse race.
