That game was considered the biggest win for Australian soccer, given that the country did not played in the World Cup the last year after heartbreaking defeat to Uruguay. For England, it was such a humiliating because they had numerous players making their debuts, including the current country's all-time top scorer in men's team, Wayne Rooney, as well as Francis Jeffers that scored his only goal with England. In 2016, England got a revenge with a 2-1 win at Sunderland. Not only because Rooney at this time scored the goal against the country on his own debut, but Marcus Rashford, the current Manchester United phenomenon, scored his first goal for England. Meanwhile, the Socceroos got the only goal thanks to Eric Dier's mistakes. So, that game was England's favour. Might be a good time for Rashford to strike again at Wembley. His form has been changed since the World Cup in Qatar. He's too phenomenal.

So funny how salty the co-commentator (I’ve forgotten his name) was! Complaining about Scholes’ goal being ruled out for offside when it was actually ruled out for a blatant foul, complaining about a foul for our second goal when it was just Rio trying to muscle Harry off the ball and missing, and then calling Emerton’s goal a ‘lucky nutmeg’ 😂

@@christopherflyger2284 yep for sure. Sadly players like Viduka never really got the attention they deserved at the time because they're Australian. He performed better than Cahill and Kewell some seasons, the guy was a machine. Now he's a nobody who owns a coffee shop in the mountains of Zagreb, kinda sad, given his history

Anyone else go back to this after the recent loss to England. Cracking game that was. But credit to current aussie- less fancied but very well organised

Best part of this win was England hosting and no excuse to not have a full strength side. We often dont get a proper starting 11 international team for a friendly when we host down under..so this was all the more sweeter, and on English soil to top it off

@@IDKWTNITFLnot really mate. Or let’s put it another way. In England many were supporting Australia in the last World Cup in their games against France Tunisia and Denmark and especially against Argentina. You wouldn’t have found one Englishman rooting for Argentina in that game, why ? Because Argentina are big rivals to England given the bitter history between the two in football over the years. Believe me, when England play Australia in football no one in England cares unless it’s a competitive game in a World Cup but then they would only care as much as if it were any other country. There simply isn’t a rivalry for the English. As said before, only in cricket and possibly rugby. I can’t understand why so many Australians are so desperate for a “rivalry” ?

I'm hearing you mate. Perhaps it's little brither syndrome. However, Aussies have a want to beat England in everything regardless. And I'd think surely england wouldn't want their penal colony offspring 1-upping them in anything. I won't debate because I can see it from your point of view much like the Kiwis claim most great aussie things as their idea first. I will say, it still was sweet for us to give our motherland a knock, in a sport they invented nonetheless. I think it just hit more because we have dominated cricket for a long time. So to get one over in soccer was great for us. Much like netball fans, Australia england there is a rivalry too

@100worldcup8 and we're talking union not league? If we were talking individual sports then certainly not in rugby league with that head to head of Eng/Aus, and Australia's world cup history. Not even the Kiwis look at league international with bright eyes in competiton to us. Lol

This was a fantastic match despite the 'misgivings'. Yes... Sven saw it as a friendly to test out some players. That's okay, in my book. But, he wasn't English, and clearly misunderstood the rivalry and how Aussies would take that. Also, it's believed that the Aussie talent at the time was (and still is considered to be) the greatest of Australian Football history. And, resultantly, thus... this result happened. One would think that England would learn from it... And, what a fun game. James as England GK did a great save... Aussies did great goals.. I won't argue it.

When Sven put out that 11 in the first half that is near full strength, littered with English stars and Australia had it won by half time. What us aussies loved most about it
