National teams

Men's senior

Australia played five friendlies ahead of the AFC Asian Cup. They recorded their 5th consecutive loss against Belgium at Stade Maurice Dufrasne in Liège^[8] but snapped the losing streak with their second win in the Ange Postecoglou era against Saudi Arabia at Craven Cottage in London.^[9] The Socceroos didn't succeed in their friendlies in the Persian Gulf, as they were held to a goalless draw against the United Arab Emirates on a hot and humid evening at Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi ^[10] and 4 days later lost to Qatar at Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium in Doha in their 500th international match.^[11] In their last friendly before the AFC Asian Cup, Australia lost to Japan at Nagai Stadium in Osaka, despite dominating the hosts in the first half.^[12]

Two months after being crowned champions of Asia, Australia played a pair of friendlies in Europe. In the first match they were close to upsetting world champions Germany at Fritz-Walter-Stadion in Kaiserslautern, but finished the match as a draw.^[13] In the following week they drew against Macedonia at Philip II Arena in Skopje, despite easily being the better side.^[14]
