![]() | Harry Kewell's dreams of landing the Asian Cup with Australia are over they crashed out of the competition to Japan on penalties in Vietnam. |
Kewell and Lucas Neill both missed from the spot as Japan triumphed 4-3 in the shoot-out to take their place in the semi-finals. Australia were reduced to ten men before the hour mark when Vince Grella was red carded for a late challenge. But they recovered well and, in stifling heat, took the lead with just 20 minutes left to play as Kewell crossed for John Aloisi to net, but the Japanese hit back immediately and levelled the scores just two minutes later. Kewell opted to take Australia's first kick in the penalty competition but saw his effort saved by Japanese keeper Yoshikatsu Kawaguchi. West Ham's Lucas Neill then also missed from the spot to leave Japan firmly in the driving seat and on their way to the last four of the competition. "I'm very proud of the performance of the boys," Arnold said. "I don't agree with the sending off, we didn't seem to get anything for the entire tournament. But that's the way it goes. "We were down to 10 men, the players put in a huge effort and Australia should be very proud." |
