Socceroos<\/a> legend Tim Cahill<\/a> has been roasted on Instagram for a post that was supposedly to support the Matildas<\/a>, but hit the wrong note.<\/p>\n

The former captain uploaded two videos to social media, one being his goal against Japan in the 2006 World Cup along with his sensational volley against the Netherlands in 2014.<\/p>\n

Cahill was reposting the video from the FIFA World Cup's official page and included his own "Happy Matildas Day" caption.<\/p>\n

The comments weren't kind for Cahill.<\/p>\n

"It's not about you today champ," one user said.<\/p>\n

Other comments included "It's about the Matildas not you mate"; "How did you make something nothing about you, about you?"; "Oh dear tone deaf male. And how far did you and your team ever get in the World Cup finals?"<\/p>\n

Cahill is Australia's second leading goalscorer of all-time, notching 50 goals for the Socceroos, a tally that only trails Sam Kerr who has scored 63 goals for the Matildas.<\/p>\n

Kerr, arguably the most lethal striker in world football, was named to start in the Matildas' World Cup semi final against England<\/a>, shaking off a calf injury that has stopped her from having her usual influence on the tournament.<\/p>\n

Kerr replaced Emily van Egmond in the starting XI for the do-or-die match in a huge boost for the Matildas, although that team news was somewhat offset by news that star defender Alanna Kennedy would be missing due to illness.\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
