For some anyway. Adam Taggart and Cameron Burgess have been named in the Australia squad for the 2016 AFC U-23 Championship in Doha. The Olyroos’ campaign kicks off on Thursday when they face the United Arab Emirates, while they will also take on Vietnam and Jordan in Group D. They need to finish in the top-two to progress to the Quarter-Finals, where one of Iraq, South Korea, Uzbekistan or Yemen will be waiting. Taggart is one of several forwards in the squad please log in to view this image Speaking to FFA TV he said: “There’s a hunger and desire to score goals. We’re always working on those things away from camp to improve those and get better." Let's hope he gets some game time - we might well need him match fit soon.
Australia have been knocked out finishing third in Group D. They recovered from a 1-0 defeat to the United Arab Emirates in their opening match to beat Vietnam 2-0, but a goalless draw with Jordan in the final match meant they missed out on qualification by a point. Cameron Burgess played the full 90 minutes of the 0-0 against Jordan Adam Taggart didn’t feature in any of the games.
