Line 1:
In 2007 the [[Australia national football (soccer) team|Australian national football team]] had ten matches scheduled. Four of these were finals matches for the [[2007 AFC Asian Cup]] and the rest were friendlies. The poor performances at the Asian Cup would soon signal the end of [[Graham Arnold]]'s tenure as head coach, his final swan song being the game against Argentina. Having not yet found a coach after Arnold's departure, Australia's technical director, [[Rob Baan]], would take over the last match of the year against Nigeria.

Revision as of 11:49, 11 October 2008
In 2007 the Australian national football team had ten matches scheduled. Four of these were finals matches for the 2007 AFC Asian Cup and the rest were friendlies. The poor performances at the Asian Cup would soon signal the end of Graham Arnold's tenure as head coach, his final swan song being the game against Argentina. Having not yet found a coach after Arnold's departure, Australia's technical director, Rob Baan, would take over the last match of the year against Nigeria.
