История [ править ]

Ранние годы [ править ]

The Australian national under-23 team made its international debut in 1967, when it took part in a triangular tournament against New Caledonia and New Zealand in Nouméa. Australia lost its first game 2–1 on 6 November, and won its second 1–3 on 10 November, with Gary Manuel supplying goals in both games.[1] The team would next played almost eighth years later in 1974, in a tour of Indonesia, sponsored by the Australian Government. During the tour, Australia, coached by Eric Worthington, won all three match against the host nation.[2] It would then be another 16 years before the team competed in international competition of any kind.

В августе 1990 года Австралия провела серию товарищеских матчей в Европе под руководством Эдди Томсона . Первый матч против Швейцарии закончился ничьей 0: 0. Второй матч был сыгран против Лиги Ирландии XI и закончился вничью 2–2 с голами Гэри Хаслера и Джона Гибсона . Финальный матч Австралии был проигран со счетом 2: 0 против Чехословакии . [3]

Олимпийские игры [ править ]

Олимпийские игры 1992 года в Барселоне [ править ]

Пожалуй, самый успешный олимпийский футбольный турнир Австралии , команда, которую тренировал Эдди Томсон , состояла всего из двух зарубежных игроков: нападающего « Мехелен » Златко Арамбашича и полузащитника « Брюгге» Пола Окон , так как остальная часть команды была родом из клубов NSL . В команде были Марк Боснич , Джон Филан , Тони Видмар и Тони Попович.и, самое главное, Нед Зелич, который практически в одиночку вывел Олироос в «Барселону» сенсационным двойным ударом в ответном матче против столь уважаемой голландской команды, принял участие до того, как начать свою успешную карьеру в Европе.

Вничью с Мексикой , Данией и Ганой «Олироос» сразятся с африканцами в Сарагосе в матче первого круга. Ранний гол на 12-й минуте, штрафной удар с дальней дистанции Мохаммеда Гарго задал тон Гане, поскольку они удерживали это преимущество до 83-й минуты, когда Кваме Айю увеличил его до 2–0 . Айю забил еще один на 89-й минуте, прежде чем Тони Видмар забил утешительный гол за Австралию на 91-й минуте, доведя счет до 3–1. [4] John Filan was eventually dropped after this game after coming under heavy criticism for failing to put up a wall for Ghana's first goal, and the ever green Mark Bosnich was brought in, cementing his spot in the side for the Olympics.

Two days later in Barcelona, Zlatko Arambasic opened the scoring after 20 minutes as Australia lead Mexico 1–0 until the 63rd minute when Jorge Castañeda leveled the tie at 1–1, the game would finish this way which meant that Australia would need to win their last group stage game to proceed to the knock-out stages.[5]

В конце концов, Olyroos показали достойное выступление, когда вся команда начала стрелять изо всех сил, выиграв 3–0 у Дании и получив место в четвертьфинале. В игре один гол в первом тайме забил Джон Марковски, а во втором - Дамиан Мори и Тони Видмар . [6]

Australia and Ghana progressed to the knock-out stages where Australia were tied to play against Sweden in Barcelona. In front of 30, 000 spectators at the Camp Nou, John Markovski put Australia ahead after 30 minutes. A 53rd-minute strike by Shaun Murphy put the Olyroos 2–0 up until Patrik Andersson scored one back for Sweden on 62 minutes. The game stayed at 2–1 and the result sent the Olyroos to the semi-finals where they would face Poland.[7]

At the Camp Nou in front of 45,000 spectators, Poland struck on 27 minutes, taking the lead after a goal from Wojciech Kowalczyk. Australia, however, hit back on 35 minutes when Adelaide City striker Carl Veart equalised. Just before half time though, Mark Viduka lashed out at a Polish defender, earning himself a straight red card, and leaving the Australian's a man down against a Polish side who were technically gifted all over the park. Poland truly came to life in the second period, putting on a dazzling display of soccer and scoring five goals in the process, which saw a hat-trick from Andrzej Juskowiak and an own goal from Shaun Murphy, to take out the game at 6–1.[8]

В игре за бронзовую медаль Австралия встретится с командой Ганы, которая лидировала, когда Исаак Асаре забил после 19 минут и в итоге выиграл игру 1–0, в результате Олироос занял четвертое место на турнире, поскольку Испания финишировала на первом месте после победы над Польшей со счетом 3–2. [9]

Олимпийские игры 1996 года в Атланте [ править ]

Эдди Томсон взял молодой состав в Соединенные Штаты, в который входили Аурелио Видмар и Стив Хорват в качестве перезаряженных игроков. В состав команды вошли 7 зарубежных игроков из 18 человек. Молодой Марк Видука был на втором курсе в « Динамо Загреб» в Хорватии, а Кевин Маскат только что подписал контракт с клубом английской Премьер-лиги « Кристал Пэлас» . Втянутые в группу B с европейскими тяжеловесами Испанией и Францией , а также Саудовской Аравией , Олироос проиграли 2: 0 Франции в их первом матче благодаря голам Роберта Пиреса иФлориан Морис в роли Дэнни Тиатто из Австралии получил красную карточку уже через 24 минуты. [10] Победа со счетом 2: 1 над Саудовской Аравией принесла Олироу первые 3 очка в кампании. Петер Цекенис забил всего за 12 минут до того, как саудовцы смогли сравнять счет с Мохаммедом Аль Хилайви на 37-й минуте. На 63-й минуте Марк Видука вывел Австралию вперед, и Австралия вышла победительницей со счетом 2–1. [11] Рауль Гонсалес вел сборную Испании со счетом 2: 0 благодаря двум ранним голам Аурелио Видмара , один на 40-й минуте, Сантьяго Дения добавил на 86-й минуте, чтобы сравнять счет. Вскоре после этого тупик был сломан, поскольку РаульЗабил на 90-й минуте, чтобы закрепить победу Испании. В результате Австралия выбыла из турнира, а Испания и Франция вышли в плей-офф. [12]

Олимпийские игры 2000 года в Сиднее [ править ]

В стороне полной силы, в которую входила Стэн Лазаридис , Йосип скоко и Видук как над игроками в возрасте, под руководством тренера Рауль Бланко на Olyroos были нарисованы против Италии , Нигерии и Гондураса в группе А . На глазах у 93 252 зрителя на стадионе Мельбурн Крикет Граунд , Австралия, потерпели поражение со счетом 1: 0 итальянским голом Андреа Пирло на 81-й минуте. [13] На футбольном стадионе в Сиднее во втором матче группового этапа Австралии они проиграли Нигерии 2: 0 всего за 22 минуты. Два гола за четыре минуты доХайден Фокс и Кейси Верман увидели, что Австралия сравняла счет незадолго до перерыва. Во втором тайме через десять минут после начала игры были исключены Бретт Эмертон и Селестин Бабаяро . На 64-й минуте гола Виктора Агали было достаточно, чтобы Нигерия выбила матч со счетом 3–2. [14] Результат означал, что Австралия была выбита из турнира с одним оставшимся матчем. В Сиднее Гондурас одержал победу со счетом 2: 1 после дубля нападающего « Кальяри » Дэвида Суазо . [15] Hondouras would finish in third place, Nigeria and Italy finished in the top two positions whereas the hosts finished in bottom spot on 0 points, much to the disappointment of the local media and then-active Australian Soccer Association.

2004 Athens Olympics[edit]

Frank Farina took an 18-man squad which included Milwall's Tim Cahill, Osasuna's striker John Aloisi and Rangers' defender Craig Moore as over aged players. The squad proved to be good enough to reach the final itself, drawing 1–1 with Tunisia thanks to an Aloisi equaliser and beating Serbia and Montenegro in a 5–1 thrashing which saw a brace from Aloisi, Ahmad Elrich and a goal by Cahill.[16][17] Australia would lose 1–0 to Argentina when Andrés D'Alessandro scored after 9 minutes in their final group stage game as both teams went on to qualify for the knock out stages.[18] Australia would meet Iraq at the quarter-final stage where Emad Mohammed scored after 64 minutes, sending Iraq through to the semi-finals as they won the game 1–0.[19]

2008 Beijing Olympics[edit]

The Olyroos' first qualifying game for the 2008 Beijing Olympics was held on 7 February 2007, when Australia hosted Taiwan in Adelaide. Midfielder Kristian Sarkies became the first player to score a hat-trick for the Under-23's in the Asian competition and Australia won the home tie 11–0. They then travelled to Taipei and narrowly edged out the home side 1–0 in difficult conditions to advance to the second stage of the qualifications. In February 2007 the Olyroos played Iran in the first game of the second round, which resulted in a 0–0 draw. In the second game of the round, against Jordan in Adelaide, they drew 1–1. This result left Australia in second spot, four points behind leaders Saudi Arabia. Against Saudi Arabia, Australia won the first leg 2–0 and lost 2–1 in the second. In May 2007 they defeated Iran 3–1. Australia qualified for the third and final round of the Asian qualifications after beating Jordan 4–0 in their final game in June 2007. The Olyroos met Iraq, Korea DPR and Lebanon at the final round (August till November 2007). Australia started their campaign with a scoreless draw against Iraq in Doha. Then the Olyroos went on to win their home games against North Korea (1–0) and Lebanon (3–0). After another scoreless draw against Lebanon in Beirut, Australia was behind Iraq with both eight points but Iraq leading because of the better goal difference. The decisive match was held in Gosford on 17 November 2007 and saw the Olyroos emerging as 2–0 winners thanks to goal from Adrian Leijer and Mark Milligan. The following 1–1 draw against North Korea in Pyongyang sealed Australia's qualification for Beijing, as they finished as group winners with 12 points, one more than Iraq.

When the eventual tournament took place in August 2008, the Olyroos were drawn against Argentina, Côte d'Ivoire and Serbia where coach Graham Arnold had controversially left out overseas-based players Nathan Burns and Bruce Djite, which left half of the squad including domestic players. A hopeful squad looked upon by the public which included Nürnberg's Matthew Spiranovic and Gençlerbirliği's James Troisi, the experience of Archie Thompson and Jade North were included as the over aged players. Shanghai was the venue of Australia's first group stage clash against Serbia, which saw them go in front after 69 minutes thanks to a Ruben Zadkovich goal. Slobodan Rajković however leveled the scores after 78 minutes to end the game at 1–1.[20] Australia's second game was against Argentina, who had beaten Ivory Coast 2–1 in their opening clash. The Olyroos held the Albiceleste at 0–0 until Napoli's Ezequiel Lavezzi latched on to a cross to score after 76 minutes. The full strength Argentina side, a team that included Roman Riquelme, Sergio Agüero and Lionel Messi, took out the game at 1–0 which left Australia in a must-win situation against the Ivory Coast.[21] An 81st minute Salomon Kalou strike gave Côte d'Ivoire a 1–0 victory knocking Australia out of the tournament.[22]

2012 London Olympics[edit]

Under coach Aurelio Vidmar, Australia commenced their qualification for the 2012 London Olympic soccer tournament in the second round of qualification where they faced Yemen in a two-game series, the first on 19 June 2011 at Central Coast Stadium in Gosford and the second on 23 June at Newcastle International Sports Centre in Newcastle. Australia won 7–0 on aggregate and progressed to the next stage. For the third round of the qualifiers Australia was drawn into Group B with Iraq, Uzbekistan and the United Arab Emirates, with the group's fixtures commencing in September 2011 and concluding in March 2012. Australia's attempt to qualify for the 2012 Olympic Games failed, with the team finishing last in their group, with four draws and two losses. All four draws were nil-all and Australia failed to score in all six games.[24]

AFC U23 Championship[edit]

2013 AFC U22 Championship[edit]

In July 2012 the Olyroos travelled to Pekanbaru, Indonesia for the qualification round to participate in the inaugural 2013 AFC U-22 Championship. Wins over Indonesia, Macau and Timor-Leste, a draw with Singapore and a heavy loss to Japan left Australia in second place in the group. This was enough to qualify to the final tournament which was hosted by Oman in January 2014. Despite a 4–0 loss to Japan in the group stage, Australia still managed to top their group, but were eliminated in the quarter final after a 2–1 loss to Saudi Arabia.

2016 AFC U23 Championship[edit]

The 2016 AFC U-23 Championship final tournament was held in Qatar from 12–30 January 2016. Australia qualified for the tournament by winning all three group matches in the qualification stage in Taiwan in March 2015. The Olyroos recorded comprehensive victories; 6–0 against Hong Kong with Jamie Maclaren scoring three; 4–0 against the hosts Chinese Taipei and 5–1 over Myanmar where Andrew Hoole scored a hat trick.

The 2016 AFC U-23 Championship doubled as the qualifying tournament for the 2016 Summer Olympics Football tournament in Rio de Janeiro. Australia were eliminated from the championship in the group stage. A 1–0 loss to United Arab Emirates followed by a 2–0 win over Vietnam meant that Australia needed to defeat Jordan in the final group match. A nil-all draw resulted in the elimination for Australia from the tournament and hence failure to qualify for the Olympics for the second consecutive time.

2018 AFC U23 Championship[edit]

Australia qualified for the 2018 AFC U-23 Championship final tournament in China in January 2018, after wins in the qualifying event against Brunei, Singapore and Myanmar.[25] Australia scored 12 goals and did not concede any during qualification.

Ante Milicic coached the team who failed to get out of the group in the tournament. They won their first match 3–1 against Syria with George Blackwood scoring twice. They then lost the next game to Vietnam 1–0. In the final game against Korea Republic, Australia was three goals down before scoring twice however they were unable to complete the comeback required and the final result of 3–2 saw Australia end their tournament third in the group.

2020 AFC U23 Championship[edit]

In March 2019 Australia participated in the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship qualification rounds. They travelled to Cambodia who were the hosts of the group that also included Chinese Taipei and South Korea. Australia's first match was a 6–0 win against Cambodia.[26] Two days later they defeated Chinese Taipei by the same scoreline.[27] The eleven group winners and the four best runners-up would qualify for the final tournament held in Thailand in 2020 so Australia needed to ensure they did not lose in the third match against South Korea.[28] Nicholas D'Agostino gave Australia the lead in the 16th minute which he then doubled in the 24th minute. However, the Koreans responded quickly, scoring in the 26th minute and when they equalised in the 63rd minute, this placed them at the top of the group at Australia's expense. The match finished 2-all however, as the best runner-up of the 11 groups, Australia still qualified for the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship as one of the top 4 runner-ups.[29]

The 2020 AFC U-23 Championship was hosted by Thailand and a top three finish was required for Australia to progress to the Olympics for the first time since 2008. Australia, coached by Graham Arnold, faced Iraq in the opening game. Reno Piscopo opened the scoring in the second half although 15 minutes later Iraq equalised and the game finished 1–1. Australia's next match was against the host Thailand. After going behind in the first half, Nicholas D'Agostino leveled the score just before half time and then scored the winner in the 76th minute. Now sitting on top of the group, a win or draw against debutant Bahrain would secure progression. Ramy Najjarine scored Australia's only goal and despite Bahrain scoring in first half injury time, the Olyroos held on to top the group and move through to the quarter-finals.[30]

The quarter-final opponent was Syria and the game entered extra time after a scoreless ninety minutes. Australia's Al Hassan Toure scored the only goal of the game to send them through to the semi-finals for the first time.[31]

Australia next played South Korea, a team that had won all four of its matches in the tournament. The Koreans won the match 2–0 with both goals coming in the second half sending Australia into a third place playoff with defending champions Uzbekistan for the final AFC qualification spot for the 2020 Olympics.[32]

Australia defeated Uzbekistan 1–0 at the Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok to claim third-place, their best ever finish in the tournament, which also qualified them for the Summer Olympics for the first time since 2008. D'Agostino scored the only goal in the 47th minute. Uzbekistan's Oybek Bozorov was sent off in the 59th minute, just 6 minutes after coming on although Australia couldn't take advantage and didn't add to their tally.[33]
