Tickets are now on sale for the Qantas Socceroos v Netherlands match, to be played on 10 October at Sydney Football Stadium.
This is an important warm up match for the Qantas Socceroos, who then head to Melbourne to play Oman in a crucial AFC Asian Cup Qualifier on 14 October.
Australia has an impressive record against the number 3 ranked Netherlands - having drawn (1-1) and won (2-1) on the two previous occasions the countries have met.
With Australia's Dutch connection, including our Dutch coaching staff and Jason Culina who, prior to joining Gold Coast United, made 160 appearances for Dutch clubs, this is a game not to be missed!
