Following the announcement of the squad on Monday, 26 August there has been a change to the Series format, with New Caledonia being forced to withdraw. As a result, the Subway Australian U-23s will now play Vanuatu on two occasions during their trip to Port Vila.
All match details will remain the same, with Vanuatu to now play Australia in place of New Caledonia for the fixture scheduled for Thursday, 5 September at Freshwater Stadium (3pm local).
The Subway Australian U-23s will then face Vanuatu again at the same venue on Sunday, 8 September (3pm local).
The PacificAus Sports Football Series provides the opportunity for Vanuatu to play competitive matches ahead of their Oceania Football Confederation FIFA World Cup™ Qualifiers.
Both Subway Australian U-23s fixtures during the PacificAus Sports Football Series will be streamed live via the Vanuatu Football Federation’s Facebook page and Football Australia’s YouTube channel.
Football Australia appreciates the support of the Australian Government, through PacificAus Sports, which has made this tour possible.
