Last night, Swannies Colin and Kay Mittchell, who now live in Doha, Qatar, watched Japan beat Australia to win 2011 Asian Cup thriller.
Colin, photographed above was there dressed to impress wearing his Swannies hat and shirt from our first Asian Champs appearance back in Bangkok, 2007.
Kay writes,
Well, it was an interesting night! It was a good game – just lacking in some decent finishing by the Socceroos. You can’t win a game without scoring shots, and there weren’t any. Some very good chances but they just couldn’t net any of them. They did play very well, but that’s soccer for you.
Luckily, I took some photos of Colin in his Swans gear – before he lost his smile!
We went to the Asian Cup in Bangkok 4 years ago, and I guess we’ll try to get to the next one in Australia. Not sure what time of year it will be though.
To the Swannies, enjoy your Tet break!
