Born on the terraces during Australia's historic 2006 World Cup campaign, Green and Gold Army captures the raw defiance of a squad that ended a 32-year World Cup absence.

Lyrics for Green and Gold Army
The Aussies are the champions,
We've gone to Asia
We've been to Uruguay,
Who the f*ck are Uruguay,
We're from down under,
The land down under,
...
We are the army,
The Green and Gold army,
Guus Hiddink's Green and Gold army,
Guus Hiddink's Green and Gold army...
