Kewell sets up Viduka - Singapore vs Australia

Was just a spectator enjoying watching this match, when near the end, I decided to pick up the camera and take a few snapshots of Harry Kewell and this happened....

(Excuse the poor quality as I was using an f/5.6 lens, so had to shoot at ISO 1600 and then boost it up to ISO 6400 via software to keep the shutter speed reasonable)

#1 A poor clearance by Singapore hands Kewell the ball inside the Singapore half
Image

#2 Kewell dribbles forward to attack
Image

#3 Kewell sizes up the sole defender...
Image

#4 And beats him
Image

#5 Kewell then surges down the left side
Image

#6 Kewell Controls the ball and checks for support
Image

#7 Kewell delivers the cross
Image

#8 The cross is watched by the Singapore defence
Image

#9 A Singapore defender tries in vain to meet the cross, but it goes over his head and Viduka swoops in the background
Image

#10 Viduka meets the ball and delivers a powerful header, Lionel Lewis sees it, but....
Image

#11 Lionel Lewis can only watch as the ball flies into the bottom corner of the goal
Image

#12 With that goal, the final scoreline is...

Thanks guys. Yeah, it will be interesting to see Australia compete in regular regional tournaments like the AFC Asian Cup and World Cup qualifying tournaments instead of the usual two game deathmatch every 4 years to qualify for the World Cup.

Nope, shot with a D200 - at ISO 1600, but as I was using a f/5.6 lens (18-200 VR) the shots were about 2.5 stops underexposed at the shutter speed I wanted (actually shot in manual mode, f/5.6, 1/200 and Auto ISO) I boosted the eV by 2 stops in RAW conversion, so the images are the equivalent of an underexposed ISO 6400 image.
