Football
The Socceroos will host Indonesia at Allianz Stadium on Thursday, 20 March 2025 (kick-off 8:00pm AEDT) as part of their Round Three AFC Asian Qualifiers™ – Road To 26 Qualification campaign.
The matchup on home soil against Indonesia represents an important clash in the Socceroos’ campaign, as they continue their journey towards the FIFA World Cup 2026™ and the prospect of a sixth consecutive appearance at international football’s showpiece event in Canada, Mexico and the United States.
This will be the Socceroos’ first match at Allianz Stadium in nearly a decade, with their last appearance at the venue a FIFA World Cup 2018™ Qualifier against the United Arab Emirates in March 2017.
The Socceroos were last in Sydney – thanks to the continued support of the New South Wales Government – in March 2024, running out 2-0 winners over Lebanon at Western Sydney Stadium in a Round Two Qualifier.
Football Australia CEO, James Johnson, expressed his excitement about the Socceroos return to Allianz Stadium.
"Sydney has played host to some of the most iconic moments in the history of our men’s national team, and we are thrilled to bring the Subway Socceroos back to this incredible city," Johnson said.
"The support for the team across New South Wales has always been phenomenal, and with so much at stake in 2025, we’re confident fans will create an electric atmosphere at Allianz Stadium once again.
"This state-of-the-art venue promises an unforgettable experience for everyone who comes to cheer on the Subway Socceroos in this pivotal Qualifier. We are deeply grateful to the NSW Government and Destination NSW for their ongoing commitment to football and our national teams," Johnson concluded.
