Tim Cahill’s World Cup may be over.
More Red In South Africa: Tim Cahill Given Straight Red In Tackle From Behind On Bastian Schweinsteiger
Australia’s best play was given a straight red card in the 56th minute on Sunday, the Socceroos attacker sliding through Bastian Schweinsteiger from behind. Referee Julian Rodriguez Santiago brandished the red card, putting Australia on ten men while down 2-0.
Cahill will be suspected for Australia’s match against Ghana and received an additional two game suspension, often commensurate for this type of straight red card offense.
Cahill’s red was the fourth card of the tournament (in eight matches) and the third of the day.
