Both teams mathematically able to qualify, with Serbia favourites at the bookies.

Australia need to beat Serbia and either Ghana to beat Germany, or Germany to beat Ghana by a decent number of goals to make up for Australia poor for/against.

A win for Serbia will see them through. A draw for Serbia will require a result in the other game.

I predict Germany to cruise against Ghana, and Australia/Serbia giving a thrilling game, but ending at stalemate. Germany and Serbia to go through.

Which one are they showing on rte, hopeflly the German one!

I'm hoping for an Australia win. This game should be dramatic, a player on the Australian team will be sent off and Australia will get a penalty after one of the Serbs hands the ball in his own box.

I hope Australia do win it, but I think 0-0 could be a possibility.

Serbia with more scoring chances than OZ. Not sure how there hasn't been a goal, it's been a very open game.

0-0 Half time

As soon as Ghana nip a goal in, Australia will find out & it'll be a major push for us to score...

Thats the plan for second half...

I am slightly worried though at the moment, yet I still have hope..

we've just been dealt the blow we didn't want at this later stage in the matches..... Germany got one in.

Chipperfield & Holman to contribute to a three-goal spree...

It was nice of the Serbian defender to move out of the way there.:)

Another goal in the next couple of mins could have Ghana sweating.

If they'd only managed to keep Germany to 2-0 or so.

Every tournament serbia seem to have a decent squad and are a lot of peoples dark horses. But they never seem to perform on the big stage. (including the past incarnations too)

First USA, now Serbia, having to suffer for multiple bad refeering decisions.

At least for the USA, they got through!

Schwarzer Cost me six points in FF

Delighted about the Aussie win, disappointed they didn't get through, but that 4-0 loss to the Germans was costly!
