India fell to a 4-0 defeat against Australia in their first AFC Asian Cup appearance since 1984 on
Monday. Two goals from Everton's Tim Cahill and one apiece from Harry Kewell and Brett Holman saw
the Socceroos go atop Group C pending South Korea's meeting with Bahrain later today. Australia

DOHA, Qatar — An impressive Australia crushed India 4-0 to get their Asian Cup campaign off to a
decisive start Monday with red-hot Everton star Tim Cahill collecting two goals. Played at an
Al-Sadd Stadium packed with noisy expatriate Indians, a convincing win was needed by the Socceroos

Australia beat 142 ranked India 4-0 in the Asian Cup opener.
A rusty Asutralia relied on the old fellas, Tim Cahill (2), Harry Kewell (1), and Brett Emerton to
create and score most of our goals. Brett Holman scored the other.
A comfortable win amd one which sets us up for the massive game with Korea on Friday.
Now that the first round of Asian Cup group matches are in the bag, the tournament is starting
to come into focus a little. Some teams are already in a must-win (or at least must-not-lose)
situation, and others are one win away from the knockouts. There have been 19 goals so far (see
them all here), and luckily only one of those has been from the penalty spot, and we have a few
goalscorers who have already racked up multiple goals.
Really looking forward to this mouth-watering clash as are the Koreans if you go by the numbers of
Koreans posting on Aussie blogs!
Young fast and mobile with players, that's Korea, playing in big leagues in Europe against an
Aussie team ageing and in decline.
Korea thumped Australia 3-1 earlier this year in Seoul and it could be a similar night tomorrow.

Talking football to our Korean friends ahead of the clash tonight.
Go Australia!
Thoughts pre-game:
Could Harry Kewell, Tim Cahill and Brett Holman be the key to victory?
Australia drew 1-1 with Korea in it's crucial Asian Cup Qualifier last night.
A strong performance from the Australia team, particularly at times in the final third showed
enough to suggest that the triumverate of Harry Kewell, Tim Cahill and the mobile Brett Holman
could see them yet into the final.
