Injuries to Riley McGree and Jordy Bos take the shine off the Socceroos' 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Lebanon in Sydney.

Injuries to Riley McGree and Jordy Bos have taken the shine off the Socceroos' 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Lebanon in Sydney.

But Graham Arnold's men could be without some significant firepower, with McGree and Bos both coming off with injury in the first half. Taggart was played in by Harry Souttar to create one of the Socceroos' best chances of the opening 45 minutes, but the in-form Perth man could only snatch at the opportunity.

But no sooner had Bos begun to spark the Socceroos' attack, the 21-year-old pulled up with a knee issue and Ajdin Hrustic was thrown on in his place.

Adam Taggart Earns Socceroos Call-Up for World Cup QualifiersAdam Taggart’s good A-League Men form has earned the Perth Glory striker a Socceroos call-up for Australia’s World Cup qualifiers against Lebanon. Socceroos coach Graham Arnold says European sides are pressuring young players to prioritise their club over representing their country, as he announced his squad for the crunch World Cup qualifiers against Lebanon. Parma defender Alessandro Circati was a notable absentee from the squad for Australia’s two games against Lebanon in Parramatta on 21 March and Canberra on 26 March, where two wins would secure their passage to the final round of qualification, and the 20-year-old is looking increasingly likely to also miss important Olympic qualifiers. Parma are chasing promotion to Serie A and Arnold had hoped by not calling up Circati for January’s Asian Cup, his club side would be more likely to release him for next month’s U23 Asian Cup, but that does not appear to be the case
