I am sure there will be one pub in Itaewon that has tonights game.

You could try behind the back alley of the Hamilton Hotel, as there are alot of bars there that have big screens.

I believe that the owner of 3Alleys resided in Aus. for some time, so there is a good chance that he will have the game. I've seen him wear the Wallabies jersey, but I'm not sure if he's a socceroos supporter.

Aussies 3 - Japan 1

What a great finish - Hiddink pumping his fist like he did 4 years ago!

That was a cracking match! It was good to see Hiddink's tactical genius combined with Cahill's attacking instinct!

Congrats Ossies! And good luck!

Each time Au scored a goal my building complex went nuts. I was woken up wondering WTF was going on...came out to turn the TV on and was wtf it aint even Korea's soccer team.

Tonight is gonna suck for sleeping if they win...the honking will prolly start all over again.

Wooot Wooot!

What an awesome game!

Go Aussies Smile

It's times like these you do miss home. Although I think the atmosphere in Korea was pretty huge too, slamming a country they hate so much!

I watched it at a bar in Bundang. I find most bars and restaurants are playing all the games.

Great game and great result. People are saying Aus played badly for much of the game, but you've never seen a sh1te performance if you thought that was bad. Relatively speaking, it was outstanding. We need a good bit of drama like that to get us going. I'm hooked now. World Cup addiction is here. Let the "what fookin game were you watching?" arguments commence, let the rabid nationalists we all wish we could be but can't (because nationalism is so uncool right?) come out. I wanna get angry at Italy for being too defensive and having a team of diving girls. I wanna get angry at France just for being France. I wanna say something contemptably racist about Argentina. I wanna scream my head off when Roon bangs one in. I love it!

Were you screaming your head off when Becks set that goal up on Sat night? Laughing
