Singapore, Socceroos set friendly
SINGAPORE – Singapore and Australia will warm-up for the next round of FIFA 2010 World Cup qualifiers with a friendly match scheduled to take place in Singapore on March 22.
The two sides last met in the Lion city back in June 2007 as Australia prepared for their AFC Asian Cup debut with a 3-0 win over Raddy Avramovic’s side.
Hosts Singapore are using the match at the Jalan Besar Stadium to fine tune ahead of their second Group 4 match, which is against Lebanon at the same venue four days later, and Australia are taking on the three-time ASEAN champions to prepare for their Group 1 clash with China.
The Socceroos will be looking to build on their 3-0 opening round win over 2011 AFC Asian Cup hosts Qatar while Singapore are hoping to bounce back form their 2-0 loss to four-time World Cup qualifiers Saudi Arabia.
