On October 3, the Australian national team released a video interview with Goodwin. The 32-year-old Goodwin spoke about the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, mentioning that he has not yet played for Australia in his hometown of Adelaide and hopes to realize this dream when facing China next Thursday.
The Australian squad for the October World Cup qualifiers will be announced on October 4, and they are set to play against the visiting Chinese team in Adelaide on October 10. In the interview, Goodwin said, “Australia will play two World Cup qualifier third-round matches in Adelaide coming up. Since I started playing for the Australian senior team in 2013, I have never played for the national team in my hometown of Adelaide. Therefore, I hope to fulfill this wish on Thursday next week when we face China, eleven years later.”
“You should know that playing in your hometown is a beautiful thing, and the feeling is different from before. I hope to run on the Adelaide pitch in front of my family and friends, and I also have a premonition that this might be the only time I represent the national team in Adelaide.”
According to the schedule, the Australian team will face China at 17:10 on October 10.
