Howie Games Host

Then we get to the Sydney Football Stadium, which it's rare, Harry, I am in a position to go to a sporting event that I'm not working at.

You would appreciate that now.

And I went with a bunch of mates and my, I was telling someone this the other day, my main memory after the penalty shootout was half an hour later there was a

announcement around the stadium saying, if you do not leave the stadium now, there will be no public transport left.

It was such a magical night.

They are prepared.

You came on a sub.

You take the first penalty.

It's one of the truly great nights in the history of Australian sport and you were involved in it.

We talk about the Champions League and the experience you've had, but that night in Sydney, oh, mate, I'm getting shivery now talking about it with you.

I love that you said that because I was obviously watching yesterday and watching the Socceroos.

Now, whether it's a player-driven decision, a management decision, it showed the quality of the organisation.

It sounds strange.

My biggest moment of pride watching yesterday was at the end of the game when the entire squad went over to the yellow corner of that stadium in Vancouver and gave them five minutes to celebrate with them.

There's a World Cup ahead.

America's beckoning.

But I loved that moment, Harry.

It was just a great moment.

That was my proudest moment as an Australian, watching the respect the players had for people that have given up on their job for a month and spent this money and gone to Canada.

Oh, yeah, I loved that moment.
