Celtic midfielder Aaron Mooy played 90 minutes for Australia as he added another cap to his name in a narrow 1-0 win over New Zealand.
Hibs winger Martin Boyle is a shoe-in for a squad place at the World Cup in Qatar later this year and was also given a full game to impress ahead of the major tournament alongside the Celtic battler.
Hearts' Nathaniel Atkinson meanwhile was brought off the bench in the second half as a goal from Awer Mabil sealed victory in front of over 25,000 fans at the Suncorp Stadium, with Mooy posing for photos and signing autographs with some of them post-match.

Mooy signed for ex-Socceroos boss Ange Postecoglou in the summer and the latter said recently they've taken their time in building him up to full fitness for Celtic Park involvement, with this his second 90 minute display of the campaign.
Arnold said of the win: "We have still got a long way to go but New Zealand just got beat by Costa Rica. They could easily have qualified.
"If there was one negative, it was that we lost the physical battle, and you need to win those physical battles at the World Cup."
