The Socceroos have scored redemption with a 2-1 win over Germany yesterday.

Both goals came within two minutes of each other during the second half of the game, which was a friendly, but nonetheless will have shaken the Germans to their core.

David Carney and Luke Wilkshire were the Aussie heroes of the match and new coach Holger Osieck couldn't have been happier with a win over his homeland.
