EUROROOS WRAP: Dario Vidosic boosted his hopes of going to the 2010 World Cup scoring a fine goal in MSV Duisburg's 3-2 loss to SC Paderborn in Germany's 2.Bundesliga overnight.
The 23-year-old Socceroo, who is battling to be part of the 23-man Australia squad for South Africa, drilled in a low shot from the edge of the box which proved too powerful for Paderborn stopper Daniel Mesuch.
The goal, which came in the 87th minute after Vidosic came on as a half-time sub, wasn't enough to save Duisburg who are out of the promotion race.
