Tim Beats Materazzi

Cahill Bows Out To Italians

Everton's Tim Cahill is out of the World cup, after 10 men Italy scored a last minute penalty to take their place in the quarter finals. Tim played well and had a great tussle with Gennaro Gattuso in the middle of the park. With a bit of luck could have had a goal or two. Former Everton player Marco Materazzi was sent off for Italy. So Tim will have time to have a break with his family before he joins Everton for Pre-season training. The boys report on 3rd July 2006. Tim should be given an extra week.

Tim says: "I'm a bit numb. I don't know what I am feeling at the moment but I suppose it's disbelief. I thought we played really well in the first half and in the second half we tried to break them down but you need goals. We played well and went out to get a goal - but then this guy falls over in the box and he gets a penalty." (26/06/06)


Cahill & Gattuso

Mexico v Portugal

Bring On Italy

Tiny Tim is looking forward to seeing more Evertonians in the crowd at Australia's game against Italy.

Tim says: "I wore it at the end of the Croatia game because a lot of Evertonians have travelled a long way to come and watch me play. It was a nice way to pay your respects to people who watch you and support you all season and take time out and spend a lot of money to come and watch Australia play.

If you are going to play anyone you might as well play the best and we've had Brazil and now Italy. So we'll have to knock out the best. We've got great attitude and we show respect to any team but there is no fear. We feel the only way we can lose is by shooting ourselves in the foot. It's the biggest thing I've ever achieved and every day it seems to get a higher and higher profile. This is the biggest football has ever been back home." (25/06/06)


Cahill Tackle Some Brazilian

Nuno Through

Nuno Valente and his Portuguese teammates have set up a Quarter Final tie with England this Saturday after beating the Dutch 1-0 in the last sixteen. Nuno was one of fourteen, or was it fifteen maybe sixteen, I lost count in the end, players booked, but was not one of the four sent off in a match that bordered on madness thanks mainly to the refereeing of some Russian looney. Maniche scored the winner to set up another bender for me this Saturday. Get in there. (25/06/06)


Nuno Beats Van Persie

Sweden v England

Here is the flag seen at the Sweden v England game.

Regards. Phil. aka Billy Dean's Laces. (24/06/06)


National Anthem Brazil v Australia Munich

Thought you may like this photo of Tim Cahill during the Oz national anthem before Brazil v Australia in Munich... Cheers, Stu Makin. (24/06/06)


Back To Munich

Here we are again at the World Cup in Munich in front of the famous Olympic Stadium - home of that memorable Bayern Munich 0 Everton 0 draw that set the scene all those years ago for the fantastic Goodison triumph! Sad to see the old Stadium falling into decline but it was a great venue to watch the England game on the big screen. The Stadium looks as futuristic as any modern stadium despite being built in 1972! Paul. (24/06/06)


Archie Sings The Blues

Australian assistant coach Graham Arnold sent the Socceroos out to thank their fans after the Croatia match.

Reserve striker Archie Thompson stole the show, wearing an Everton shirt and being urged on by Stan Lazaridis, he grabbed a corner flag, and did his best Freddie Mercury impression. Priceless. (23/06/06)


Iran v Portugal in Frankfurt


With The Local Bobbies & Iranians


With The Flag

With The Portuguese
We went to see the Iran v Portugal game at the weekend in Frankfurt. We brought our big EFC flag with us. It was a great match. The Iran fans wanted a picture with the flag, and the Portugal fans too. They were singing, "Duncan Ferguson!"

Thanks, Vinny and Patrick. (23/06/06)

We Find Evertonian With Cahill's World Cup Shirt


Day With his Everton Shirt On


Day With Cahill's Shirt

Imagine the scene. Australia v Croatia game in Stuttgart. As you can see it's my mate Day who managed to swap shirts with Tim Cahill, the jammy bastard! He was out there with his two brothers Joey and Paul, his dad Tony and me.

Not only was the game one of the best in the tournament, Day got a himself a great piece of memrobilia to last him a lifetime.

So everyone can now put a face to "that jammy bastard who got Cahill's shirt" Ben Assa. (11/07/06)

Tim Swaps Shirts With An Everton Fan

Click Here To See Tim Swap Shirts

While most of his Aussie team mates were swapping shirts with Croatia players after the 2-2 draw, Tim Cahill noticed a supporter wearing the blue jersey of Everton after the final whistle and initiated a swap with his sweat-stained Aussie shirt. The fan was ecstatic.

Tim says: "I just wanted to pay my respects to the fans who have travelled a long way and spent a lot of money to support us. I wanted to make it worthwhile for them." (23/06/06)
