I could not agree more, it is what makes our game different – unique!

I mean whenever I see other sports in Australia I always have that feeling that this is (generally) their highest honour. But in football we have the tradition of continental competitions, which gives it that added meaning and also a sense of interacting with the world.

A-League to ACL: Australian football needs Asia

@Dean It is all about balance and it is up to the clubs to find a way to strike a balance. It will be difficult but in the end can only offer many rewards.

@Bojan precisely success in Europe is part of the European mentality – I mean the club I support Crvena Zvezda won the 1991 European Cup Final and it is still referred to as a moment of pride in these times of hardship for the club’s supporters (especially with the club’s recent struggles we can still hold over the 91 European Cup victory over our rivals Partizan Belgrade). So continental competition is what a club’s history is built on and offers fans enormous pride.

@wotdoo I don’t understand the negativity, I would love for every A-League club to start having larger crowds and high membership rates. I mean look at Melbourne Victory they are a club everyone does, and should, respect because of the fans they have.

Exactly my thoughts, having a strong ACL will only make the long-term future more profitable for all clubs.

Milos Krasic, is another example of a player that was expected to perform at a world-class level…but his performance was more of a state league level.

Serbia's Marko Pantelic: The enigma?

NZ soaking up the pressure from Slovakia, wonder if they can hold out until halftime…this game has been very random though…anything could happen.

Yeah Tony, I was looking forward to watching this match just because of the extreme clash of styles.

Great start by New Zealand, with some early chances coming their way. Looks like this could be a competitive match. Hopefully New Zealand score, that would really make it interesting, and also force Slovakia to really come and out and attack.

Hey Tony,

Hopefully there are a few goals tonight…for both sides.
