The Young Socceroos defeated both their Group A opponents and are in Melbourne training for their two-legged qualification match either against New Zealand or Fiji. The home leg will be played at Bob Jane Stadium. Date to be confirmed.

Vince Lia, Massimo Murdocca and Michael Baird had a hand in the Group A matches with Vince Lia coming off the bench against Papa New Guinea and scored in the 76th minute.

“It is a good experience. I am enjoying the camp and look forward to our next two matches”, said Lia yesterday.

Get along early to Bob Jane Stadium and watch Australia’s youngest stars and three of South Melbourne finest young guns, proudly wear the Green and Gold at Lakeside this Sunday.
