Tuesday, 24 May 2016 -
On a chilly afternoon at Sunderland's Academy of Light training centre, the
Caltex Socceroos kicked off preparations for their match with England. With
captain Mile Jedinak rested from training following his FA Cup final exertions
on Saturday, all 22 players were involved in the 75-minute session. It wasn't a
physically demanding session but it emphasised speed of thought, crisp passing
and sharpness. It started at 4pm with static stretches following by active
stretching as the keepers then trained separately. A warm down was followed by
media commitments before the team headed back to their Newcastle hotel. There
was a large media contingent from Australia and the UK to watch training. One
interested onlooker was former Socceroos coach Jimmy Shoulder.
