Australia and New Zealand name squads for Gtech clash

Australia and New Zealand have named their squads ahead of their clash at the Gtech Community Stadium on Tuesday 17 October (7.45pm kick-off).

The trans-Tasman rivals will face off in west London for the recently rediscovered New Zealand and Australia Soccer Ashes Trophy.

Taking place during the October FIFA men’s international window, the game will follow Australia’s match against England at Wembley Stadium on Friday 13 October.

And they have named both St. Pauli’s Jackson Irvine and Al Wehda’s Craig Goodwin – who both impressed during the 2022 World Cup – in their squad.

Ipswich Town’s Massimo Luongo will join up with the Socceroos for the first time since 2019. He’s joined by Tractor Boys team-mate Cameron Burgess.

Fellow Championship side Middlesbrough have three players in the squad: Sam Silvera, Riley McGree and Thomas Glover.

Leicester City defender Harry Souttar and former Arsenal goalkeeper Mat Ryan are also in the Australia set-up, while Hibernian’s Lewis Miller earns his first senior national team call-up.

As for New Zealand, Darren Bazeley has named his first squad since taking on the role on a permanent basis, with two players called up for their senior international debuts.

Bazeley’s squad sees Fulham’s 19-year-old midfielder Matthew Dibley-Dias and Reading’s 18-year-old defender Tyler Bindon named for the first time.

Former Brentford loanee Tommy Smith, who played eight times for the Bees during their League One campaign in 2009 and 2010, is in the All Whites set-up.

Nottingham Forest striker Chris Wood, who faced Brentford at the City Ground last weekend has also been named in the squad.
