World Cup History for the Socceroos! 🇦🇺 Remember this one, Toffees?
At the 2006 World Cup, Tim Cahill made Australian football history. Coming off the bench, the former Everton midfielder sparked a dramatic 3-1 World Cup comeback against Japan. First, he drilled home a loose ball from a chaotic goalmouth scramble to score Australia’s first-ever World Cup finals goal in the 84th minute. Just five minutes later, Cahill unleashed a powerful edge-of-the-box strike off the post to make it 2-1. John Aloisi’s goal sealed the famous 3-1 win in stoppage time.
