It is quite possible that when historians of the game are looking over the past performances of Mitch Langerak, trying to see where one of Australia's (the world's?) top goaltenders got his start, they might miss the significance of a truly auspicious beginning. A 3-1 victory in Munich. Looking back, Langerak himself might wince a bit -- like all top athletes (other than Nicklas Bendtner), hypercritical of his performance -- lamenting a single allowed goal that he had virtually no chance to stop. But as was clear to fans that night, that was no ordinary victory, and Mitch Langerak is clearly no ordinary goalkeeper.
