About Australia
Snapshot of Australia's 2026 squad and outlook.
Australia arrive at World Cup 2026 off the back of their best-ever tournament - a fairytale run to the quarter-finals at Qatar 2022, where they defeated Denmark and Argentina's nemesis Saudi Arabia before pushing eventual champions Argentina hard. The Socceroos, now coached by Tony Popovic, have lost key figures from that generation but retain a competitive nucleus eager to repeat or better that feat. Group D pits Australia against co-hosts United States, Paraguay, and Turkey - a competitive group where they must be at their best to qualify. Australian football is in a positive place, and a motivated Socceroos squad will be tough to beat.
