Seven times in world cup qualifiersMan, f*ck fifa and their injustice. Australia plays against pokemon island nations like Fiji and regularly participates on world cups, while European nations slaughter each other in qualifications that are harder than the world cup itself.
A whole bunch of teams that are stronger than these kangaroids, half of Central America and Asia never gets the chance to participate at the world cup, while the f*cking socceroooooos and narco cartels of Central America participate on a regular basis.

Australia when it comes to football is not really that respected in the world of soccer and to go up against a European team that has had success (Denmark) and who were considered a dark horse is a testament to how much we're underrated by the world. Think about it, we have European teams like Italy, the Netherlands, and Serbia who didn't qualify for the world cup, even South American giants like Uruguay, Columbia or Peru (who got knocked out by the Socerross btw), Aussies who don't even take football as a serious sport are still showing up and kicking ass, you gotta respect that sxb.
