Last weekend a few of us from work went down to a pub to watch the soccer. It was Corea vs France, and we sat around and watched Corea being thoroughly beaten for the first half. We left at halftime, not wanting to see Corea being slaughtered. Turns out that they managed to equalise, and by the time I got home there were heaps of red-shirted Coreans out on the street chanting. Was amazing to see buses turn up, heaps of people pour out, form into a chanting mob, and start walking up and down Robson St. I guess they really like their football.

You need to be supporting the Socceroos. I even got up at 5am on Friday morning to see them play Croatia. The whole country is going mad. Even the Croatian supporters also supported Australia. T shirts half and half. We play Italy on Tues 1am and the Italians also have half and half t shirts. More Australian kids play soccer than any other football code but it has never made it big time here before.
