Four Hearts stars land Australia call-up for Ecuador 'Welcome Home' series after World Cup heroics

Hearts will have FOUR players in the Australia squad for a double-header later this month.

The Socceroos are marking their World Cup homecoming with two friendly clashes against Ecuador. The first match will take place in Sydney on March 24 with a second encounter four days later in Melbourne on March 28.

Graham Arnold's squad for the 'Welcome Home' Series includes 20-players who represented Australia at the World Cup including the Jambos' Down Under stars. Kye Rowles, Cammy Devlin, Nathaniel Atkinson and Garang Kuol will all be on the plane later this month and get the chance to get themselves further international experience. It was a tournament to remember in Qatar with the Socceroos reaching the knockout stages before defeat to Lionel Messi and Argentina - who went on to lift the trophy.
