Yes, Tim Cahill is still part of our team, and, yes, as far as FIFA is concerned, Australia is considered part of Asia, so let's celebrate his achievement. The recently-controversial midfielder helped his country to the continental crown, as the host Socceroos beat South Korea in the final, 2:1 after extra time.

Cahill scored three goals in the tournament: one in the opening 4:1 win over Kuwait, and two in the quarterfinal 2:0 triumph over China.

He is widely expected to leave the idiocy of RBNY for middle eastern money in the near future.
