Kewell returns to Australia side

Good news for reds down under. And hopefully for Liverpool, if this game brings back the self-confidence he seems to have been lacking. From the BBC Sport site.

Liverpool winger Harry Kewell will make his first home appearance for Australia since 2001 on Tuesday.

Kewell missed the Confederations Cup first-leg qualifier against the Solomon Islands with a groin injury but is in the side for the return leg.

The Socceroos will take a four-goal cushion into the match in Sydney after routing the Solomons 5-1 in Honiara.

Victory for Australia will see them qualify for the 2005 Confederations Cup in Germany.


Australia: Mark Schwarzer (captain), Tony Vidmar, Kevin Muscat, Tony Popovic, Lucas Neill, Simon Colosimo, Luke Wilkshire, Josip Skoko, Harry Kewell, Brett Emerton, Ante Milicic.
