Rommel, will he turn up for Japan?

Did you know the Japanese side have a mascot, a 10-year- old dog called Rommel. For eighteen games when he turned up at training the Japanese national team won.

Who broke the spell? Australia's 3-1 win in Germany. Rommel was there but no luck.

Still, rumour is Rommel is off to Vietnam to follow the boys in blue.

Waste of time I say. The team have lost their bark:)
