Australia 0 - Paraguay 0

Ultimately a bit of a stalemate. Socceroos definately the better team, Okon played a couple of wild passes, but in all was the general of the game. Emerton and Lazaridis had fine games, Tiatto looked a little PLpromotion-hungover, Chilavert was out to make a name for himself...

Most of Australia's chances came from headers, and should have at least put one away. Almost won it on the final whistle, but called back for offside, and the comment was that if it was Paraguay who had scored on the final minute in Paraguay, the goal would have been counted...
