I swear Alan Smith was trying to injure Viduka on the last 3 goals.

What Do We Think?
It’s great that the Leeds fans had a chance to relive such a great moment in their history, imagine if the Peacocks beat the current Liverpool side 4-3, that would most likely be remembered for another 19 years also.
Viduka has done a lot for Australian football, so it’s nice to see him be rewarded not only in awards, but the fans appreciation from his former clubs.
